ABA League 11th round, Monday, 23.11.2015:
Where? Jane Sandanski Arena, Skopje
TV schedule: 18:00
Story of the game: The battle of two teams with the upper half of the standings ambitions, that is coming up in Jane Sandanski will for sure not be an ordinary one. Aleš Pipan will lead his MZT Skopje Aerodrom against his former team of Zadar, while the guests are coming to town with former MZT player Ivan Marinković, who is now one of their key players.
Both sides are well aware that a new victory would keep them in the group of teams, that are still hoping to make an upset and reach the top four at the end of regular season, while a defeat would make their chances look miserable. MZT Skopje Aerodrom are entering the battle after two straight defeats, while on the other hand Zadar have won four out of their last five games.
This time Aleš Pipan will not be able to count on captain Marko Simonovski, while the appearances of Ljubomir Mladenovski and Danilo Mijatović should be put next to the question mark, while there are currently no injury problems in the squad from Višnjik.
Match-up in focus: Ante Delaš has taken the MVP of the round honours last weekend and he will try to prove that he is the MVP material once again, as he will face one of the best point guards of the league on the other side - Marko Ljubičić, who is currently the fourth best passer of the league, averaging 5 assists per game.
