ABA League 8th round, Monday, 7.11.2016
Where? FMP Sports Hall, Železnik
When? 18:00
Story of the game: After a pretty good start of the season, when they had 2 wins out of opening 3 games, FMP got defeated in the next 4 rounds of ABA League and sank to the bottom part of the standings. The Panthers are badly trying to get back into the right rhythm and the following match might be a perfect chance for them to finally return on the winning path. Simply, because their next opponent is the team which is currently occupying the last place on the standings.
Karpoš Sokoli are the only team in the league with all 7 defeats out of the previous 7 rounds. They have changed head coach during the previous week and everyone in Skopje hope that change can bring some new positive atmosphere inside the squad. More importantly, they hope that can bring them the 1st ever win in the ABA League.
Match-up in focus: Stefan Lazarević is a player in which FMP put really high hopes. He is young, talented, but he is still missing something to become a big player. On Monday evening, he will have to confront a much more experienced player - Zoran Vrkić - who is one of the leaders of Karpoš Sokoli.
Head to head in regional league: 0:0.
