2017/18 ABA League Regular Season, Round 9, Sunday, 19.11.2017:
MZT SKOPJE AERODROM - BUDUĆNOST VOLI
Where? Jane Sandanski Hall, Skopje
When? 19:00
Story of the game: The things aren't really looking bright for MZT Skopje Aerodrom. They are currently the last placed team on the standings, while they have the longest losing streak of all teams, as they suffered 4 consecutive defeats. And, on top of that, they are about to play against the first placed Budućnost VOLI this Sunday.
Still, there is one thing that can boost the confidence of the home team in front of Sunday's clash. Last season, MZT Skopje Aerodrom managed to pull off a major upset by beating Budućnost VOLI in Jane Sandanski Hall, so they hope they are able to do it once again.
The visitors are really on fire when it comes to ABA League. They are on a 6-win streak, while it must be said that they have defeated teams such are Crvena zvezda mts, Petrol Olimpija and Cedevita along the way. Therefore, they are coming to Skopje with one and only goal - to grab another win.
Match-up in focus: Damjan Stojanovski (MZT Skopje Aerodrom) vs. Kyle Gibson (Budućnost VOLI). The only question here is who will score more points, as we are talking here about some sharp shooters. The interesting thing is that they will also have to play defense on each other.
Head to head in regional league: In total 8:2; In Skopje 2:3.
