Two athletic, old-school centers will face each other on Wednesday when Umana Reyer Venice's Mitchell Watt welcomes ratiopharm Ulm's Cristiano Felicio.
Major Matchup: Watt, Reyer vs. Felicio, Ulm
Watt leads the hosts on most fronts, including 12.1 points, 6.1 rebounds and an overall PIR of 14.0. He also adds 1.1 assists and 1.0 steals to the mix and he has started in all of his nine appearances this season. However, it was against Ulm in Round 3 that Watt had his only scoreless game of the season despite being 12 minutes on court, so he will surely want to get even, this time at home.

Felicio is having an almost-perfect debut season in the EuroCup and is one of the main factors in Ulm's resurgence in recent rounds. He has averaged 12.1 points, 7.7 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.0 steal in 11 appearances as a starter this season. Against Venice earlier this season, he had 12 points and 6 rebounds and he will try to repeat and even improve on that solid performance this time in Italy.
