In the opening match of 14th round of ABA League, FMP will host Zadar. Two sides played a thrilling match in the 1st part of the Regular Season, so everyone hope that it will be no different on Friday evening...

ABA League 14th round, Friday, 16.12.2016:

FMP - ZADAR

Where? FMP Sports Hall, Belgrade

When? 18:00

Story of the game: FMP will definitely try to forget the 1st part of the ABA League Regular Season, as they are currently sharing the last spot on the standings. The Panthers suffered 5 consecutive defeats, while they have just 1 win in the previous 10 rounds of ABA League! Still, they hope the time has come to break that awful losing streak and to begin a new chapter in the 2016/17 season.

On the other side, Zadar will play against the tradition, as they have a pretty bad head to head score against FMP away. In the previous 8 games in Železnik, the Dalmatian side has triumohed just 1 time... Still, Zadar have already beaten FMP once in the ongoing 2016/17 campaign. In the 1st part of the Regular Season, in a thrilling match in Krešimir Ćosić Arena, Zadar prevailed over FMP by 78:76.

Match-up in focus: Jonah Bolden has been one of the best players of FMP recently, while his duel against Zadar forward Boris Barać should be very interesting. They play at the same position, but they are totally different type of players...

Head to head in the regional league: In total 11:7; In Belgrade 7:1.
