The last match of the ABA League Round 17 will be held in Laktaši where Igokea are about to host FMP.
ABA League 17th round, Tuesday, 10.1.2017:
Where? Sports Hall Laktaši, Laktaši
When? 17:00
Story of the game: With two wins in a row, Igokea are now safe at the 6th place on the standings, but this team do not want to stop there. The boys from Laktaši want to improve their position even further, and to do that they will need to stay on the winning track. Igokea have already defeated FMP once in this season. It was in the 4th round of the 2016/17 ABA campaign when Igokea triumphed in Železnik by 81:76. Will they be successful once again?
Well, they will certainly not have an easy job, as FMP are slowly improving their form. The Panthers scored 2 wins out of the previous 3 rounds, but they still have a lot of problems with their away games. So far in this season, FMP have collected just one single away win. They will need more of them to secure the ABA League status for the following season.
Match-up in focus: James Robinson is once again the player in focus, especially after he scored that game-winner for Igokea in the previous round. On the other side, Filip Čović has been playing quite good lately and he will try to lead FMP toward an important break. Only one can prevail.
Head to head in regional league: In total 0:1; In Laktaši 0:0.
