Match Preview
London Lions close the SLB Championship regular season at the Copper Box Arena on 23 April 2027 against Caledonia Gladiators — the final home game of the 2026-27 domestic campaign and a Friday night occasion that doubles as the season send-off for the Copper Box faithful before the playoffs begin. Caledonia Gladiators, Scottish basketball’s flagship professional club, make their longest league away journey of the season to east London — a fixture that the Lions approach with focus regardless of its position-table significance, given the Gladiators’ ability to perform away from home. The final regular-season home game at the Copper Box is always a notable occasion: the crowd comes knowing it may be the last opportunity to watch the Lions in league action at the arena until the following September, and the combination of late-April energy, playoff anticipation and a strong home record throughout the season makes for one of the most atmospheric evenings of the basketball year in London. The Lions’ dual campaign — EuroCup and SLB Championship — will have run its course by this point, with the focus entirely on the domestic postseason. Tickets via Ticketmaster and Lions’ own channels; StubHub and Viagogo for resale. A fitting curtain-call for the regular season at one of London’s best indoor sports venues — and the beginning of what could be a title run.
