The hosts lead the playoff series 2-0 and have the chance to advance to their first EuroLeague Final Four since 2010.

Back then, Partizan created a first-class upset under the direction of Dusko Vujosevic, eliminating Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv 3-1. At that time, Partizan had a chance to go to the final, but they were unlucky against Olympiakos in Paris Bercy, when Josh Childress made a put-back dunk off a Milos Teodosic's airball 3-point shot. The semifinal went to overtime, where the Reds prevailed.

However, there's no dilemma for Dusko Vujosevic as to which side will go through. Despite the absences of Kevin Punter and Mathias Lessort, who received game suspension following last Thursday's brawl in Madrid, the veteran coach thinks his ex-team will finish what it started.

"I told my friends earlier that Partizan will eliminate Real 3-0," Vujosevic told Kurir.

"However, now Real Madrid's strength depends a lot on the condition of Edy Tavares. Their experienced players are a bit old, and the younger ones have yet to reach a high level of quality. Partizan's huge advantage in this series is Zeljko Obradovic, and the team plays with great quality, passion, and in a trance.

The fans recognized that energy, so many season tickets were sold. Now, they went to wait for them at 6:30 in the morning," Vujosevic continued referring to the airport reception.

Partizan fans are already checking tickets and looking for accommodation for Kaunas. They expect to revive the 1992 feat, when their team won the EuroLeague in Istanbul.

"I am sure that they will make it to the Final Four, and everything is possible there because you can see from the results so far that the teams are equal at this stage," the 64-year-old Montenegrin tactician maintains.

"Of course, we are witnessing history being made."

Vujosevic appealed to the fans to be aware of the moment and once again show that they are the best in Europe.

"Those who enter the Stark Arena should be aware that Partizan is above all and that they should not make any move that would lead to some punishment," he concluded.
