Only one series resumed on Wednesday as 12 seed Polkowice was already bringing home a big lead and 20 seed Botas was not competitive as Ana Filip paced the hosts in an 84-35 win, pushing the final margin to 159-91.  On Thursday, 18 seed Gorzow had the narrowest of leads from the other game, but Enisey quickly grabbed the advantage and then broke it open in the second half to 93-77 and advance 159-144.  9 seed Spartak Moscow had a solid lead already and a 79-63 win over last seed Fribourg meant a 168-135 overall win.  21 seed Miskolc looked to be holding their carryover lead early, but Jessica Thomas and Olympiacos dominated the middle quarters before struggling in the final frame, but an 84-73 win was enough to flip the margin to 138-132 in their favor.  16 seed Bydgoszcz had a lead from the first game, but any hopes of simply cruising were dashed early as Andra Mandache and Chrissy Givens helped 17 seed Sepsi overturn the deficit and take a lead into halftime.  The hots charged out of the gates at halftime behind Laura Miskiniene and Jennifer O’Neill and it was close, but a 79-71 loss was still enough to keep the aggregate in their favor 141-140.  10 seed Gernika had a solid lead already and Nikolina Milic helped them win again as the 83-56 final pushed the margin to 140-108 over 23 seed Tsmoki-Minsk.  With a lack of upsets, 13 seed Roche may have thought that they were in good position by bringing a lead home, but Yvonne Anderson and 20 seed Besiktas showed that they were ready early and then used a big final quarter to win 82-73 and flip the final margin in their favor 161-156.  The one upset that was expected after the first games was completed to end the day as Sydney Wiese and 19 seed Sedis won again 72-63 over 14 seed Sint-Katelijne-Waver to move on by a 131-109 final margin.

Half of the series started on Wednesday, opening in Minsk, where 23 seed Tsmoki lost to 10 seed Gernika 57-52.  12 seed Polkowice brought home the biggest advantage of the day after Artemis Spanou led them past Frida Eldebrink and Botas 75-56.  In the game between the closest seeds, Brianna Kiesel and Laura Miskiniene secured a solid lead for 16 seed Bydgoszcz with a 70-61 win over Sepsi.  The closest game of the day went to 13 seed Roche, which beat Katsiaryna Snytsina and 19 seed Besiktas 83-79.

A lower seed finally broke through on Thursday in Miskolc as Ziomara Morrison emerged for the 21st seeded hosts in a 59-54 win over 11 seed Olympiacos.  18 seed Gorzow also got a narrow win behind Kahleah Copper and Laura Juskaite 67-66 over 15 seed Enisey.  The higher seeds returned to winning ways when Paris Kea and 9 seed Spartak Moscow got an 89-72 win in Fribourg.  Sedis has the best chance of overturning seeding after Tinara Moore helped the 22 seed pull away from 14 seed Sint-Katelijne-Waver for a 59-46 win.  The series will now take three weeks off before resuming at the opposite venues in the new year.
