ABA League Round 8, Monday, 25.11.2019:

CRVENA ZVEZDA MTS - MORNAR

Where? Aleksandar Nikolić Hall, Belgrade

Where? 18:00

Story of the game: Several very important things have happened to Crvena zvezda mts during the past week. The reigning ABA League champions firstly returned on the winning path in the EuroLeague after scoring a big away win against Zalgiris Kaunas, while then they appointed Dragan Šakota as new head coach. Šakota, who returned to the club after 12 years, will start his second spell as Crvena zvezda mts head coach on Monday evening in the ABA League clash against Mornar.

The red & whites have never lost a home game against the visitors from Bar. So far, these two teams have faced each other 5 times in Belgrade and the home team have won all of those games.

However, the situation is now much different than in the previous years. Crvena zvezda mts and Mornar are currently all tied on the ABA League standings and that suggests that we will watch a very interesting match on Monday evening.

Match-up in focus: Three years ago, Ognjen Kuzmić and Milko Bjelica played as teammates in Crvena zvezda mts and they helped the club win triple crown in the 2016/17 season. After that they went on different paths, while this summer both of them came back to the ABA League… But they are not teammates anymore. Ognjen Kuzmić has returned to Crvena zvezda mts, while Milko Bjelica has joined the ambitious project of Mornar. And now, they will face each other at their familiar court.

Head to head in the regional league: In total 8:1; In Belgrade 5:0.
