The EuroLeague officially announced that the match between the two teams will be played in Belgrade -- Maccabi's new home away from home -- instead of Istanbul. The move was made to ensure the safety of both clubs.

On October 17th, the Israeli National Security Council issued a statement for all Israeli citizens to leave Turkey if currently stationed in the country and avoid traveling there unless absolutely necessary. The highest -- level four (high threat) -- travel warning was issued for the country.

After the approval of the move, Maccabi will now play five home games in Belgrade in a row.

Additionally, their previously postponed match against Real Madrid has been rescheduled. The two teams will meet in Belgrade on November 28th at 20:05 CET.
