Hunting for a berth in the Quarterfinals of the Basketball Champions League extends to Gameday 5 of the Round of 16.

Likely to produce the first team or teams securing a ticket to the next round, the next batch of exciting contests are scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday. If pieces fall in a specific order, then the entire field of eight teams can be revealed until Wednesday evening.

Eight out of the sixteen remaining BCL contenders have placed themselves in a position to potentially progress to the Quarterfinals in Gameday 5.

Eurohoops presents clinching scenarios across the eight games to be played all around Europe next week.

Group I

W-L PTS
Unicaja 4-0 8
Tofas 2-2 6
Cholet 2-2 6
SIG Strasbourg 0-4 4

Reaching the Quarterfinals for the third year in a row, Unicaja does not even need to win. Riding a perfect 4-0 record, the team coached by Ibon Navarro can advance by overpowering Tofas in Bursa on Wednesday. In case of a loss, SIG Strasbourg defeating Cholet in Rhenus Sport would clinch a berth for the Malaga outfit later Wednesday night.

Invested heavily, the Turkish club requires a win and Strasbourg to take down Cholet in the battle of teams from France’s Betclic Elite to progress on a 3-2 record and favorable tiebreaker.

Currently tied with Tofas at 2-2, Cholet needs to win if the team based in Bursa defeats Unicaja to avoid elimination for a second straight week.

At 0-4, the fellow French club only hopes for two wins paired with two wins for Unicaja and edging out Tofas and Cholet in a projected three-way tie to salvage a berth in the Quarterfinals.
