In the 20th round of ABA League FMP will host Cibona. Two sides await the upcoming clash in quite different mood...
ABA League 20th round, Sunday, 29.1.2017:
Where? Fmp Sports Hall, Belgrade
When? 19:00
Story of the game: Thanks to some very good recent results, FMP have climbed up to the 9th position on the ABA League standings. However, there is still much to be played in the Regular Season and the Panthers know very well that they need to keep collecting valuable wins. In the last 5 rounds, FMP achieved 3 victories, while they will try to improve that score on Sunday evening when they are about to face Cibona.
The visitors are not really in the best rhythm. The Wolves suffered 4 defeats out of the last 5 games in ABA League and they are slowly losing the race for the Playoffs. However, be absolutely sure that the boys from Zagreb will continue to fight until the end and that they will approach every next game like everything depends on it.
Match-up in focus: Jonah Bolden has been the best player of FMP in past couple of weeks, while he will confront currently the top scorer of Cibona - Željko Šakić. It will be quite a duel of two excellent power forwards.
Head to head in regional league: In total 9:7; In Belgrade 6:1.
