Ros Casares will be boosted by the return of Elena Tornikidou when they visit TEO Vilnius in the EuroLeague Women on Thursday. 

The Uzbekistan-born star, a key ingredient in the side that reached the final of the competition last year, missed last week's game against Dynamo Moscow with a shoulder injury and Ros only scraped a two-point victory. 

Tornikidou, 42, has averaged 8.3 points, 3.9 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game this season. 

Erika, Ros Casares' Brazil international, still has not been registered on their EuroLeague Women roster after returning to the club following an ankle operation. Erika has so far only played in her team's Liga Femenina games. 

Ros Casares have won 22 consecutive games without a loss this season, a cause for real excitement in Valencia and coach Manolo Real would like nothing more than to keep the streak alive in Lithuania. 

"This is a difficult game on the road for us, but my team has the ambition to complete the group stages without a defeat," Real said.
