Preview: CBF Manresa at TGN Basquet

BARCELONA, Spain (Interstat) — A matchup of teams at opposite ends of the standings will take place Saturday when CBF Manresa visits TGN Basquet in a Spain LF women’s professional basketball game.

Manresa (12-11) enters the contest looking to solidify its position in the league’s upper half and continue a positive run of form. The team has won three of its last four games, most recently a 70-64 victory over Leon on March 29. Forward Eva Almasque, a key player to watch, posted a double-double in that win with 11 rebounds and six points. Her consistent minutes and all-around play will be central to Manresa’s efforts.

In contrast, TGN Basquet (3-20) is mired in a difficult season, though it is coming off a rare dominant performance — a 69-43 road win against Maresme on March 28. That victory snapped a five-game losing streak. The home side will rely heavily on forward Brigitte Lefebvre Okankwu, who was spectacular in the win, recording 15 points and 18 rebounds. She has been a consistent bright spot, averaging a double-double over her last three contests.

The head-to-head history adds an intriguing layer. When these teams met on Dec. 21, it was TGN Basquet that emerged victorious, 57-48, in Manresa. That result provides a measure of hope for the league’s last-place team, proving it can compete with this opponent.

For Manresa, balance has been key. In its last win, Queralt Ribera (17 points) and Carla Ortas (15 points) provided crucial scoring alongside Almasque’s interior work. TGN Basquet, beyond Lefebvre Okankwu, will need significant contributions from guards Andrea Sisniega and Sara Torruella, who combined for 21 points and eight assists in the Maresme victory.

The game presents a clear contrast: Manresa seeks to continue a push toward a winning record, while TGN Basquet aims to build on its most recent performance and find a path to a second consecutive win for the first time this season. Tip-off is set for Saturday, April 11, 2026.
