Time for first win for Olimpija Ljubljana in Stožice?

In the Sunday’s clash against FMP, Olimpija Ljubljana are seeking their first win in Stožice Arena this season in the ABA League. On the other side, FMP will try to score a perfect record in the away games played in Slovenia, after previously having beaten Krka in Novo mesto.

ABA League 9th round, Sunday, 13.11.2016:

OLIMPIJA LJUBLJANA - FMP

Where? Stožice Arena, Ljubljana

When? 19:00

Story of the game: In the second game of the Sunday ABA League schedule, Olimpija Ljubljana will host FMP in Stožice Arena and try to book their first victory in Stožice Arena this season. The Dragons have won one of their home games this season, but playing in Tivoli Hall against Mornar. On the other side, FMP are not a team, well known for their excellent road game’s performances, but they have won a game in Slovenia already this season – against Krka in Novo mesto. Now they will try to score a perfect record on the road against Slovenian teams this season.

While the home side are chasing their third win this season, FMP are hoping that they might grab their fourth. However, they have one game on their account played more than the Ljubljana side.

Olimpija Ljubljana might play this game without mildly injured Nikola Janković and Dražen Bubnić, while FMP have no injured players currently.

Match-up in focus: Blaž Mesiček is without a doubt the greatest Olimpija’s prospects at the moment and one of the greatest in the league. This season he has proven himself to be one of the team’s main offensive weapons and on the other side he will have to face Dušan Kutlešić this time, an excellent defensive player, that has fit into FMP side just fine since he joined the Belgrade team. Will defense or offense prevail this time?

Head to head in regional league: In total 6:9; In Ljubljana 5:2.
