2017/18 ABA League Regular Season, Round 5, Monday, 23.10.2017:
Where? FMP Sports Hall, Belgrade
When? 18:00
Story of the game: FMP await this match in very positive atmosphere, as they scored an important road win last weekend against Mornar. If you watched that game, you could see by the players' reaction how much the win was valuable for the Panthers. And, they now want to stay on the winning path.
On Monday evening FMP will host Zadar, the team they have been defeating regularly at home court...
So far Zadar have managed to beat FMP on the road just once in ABA League, while at the same time they have suffered no less than 8 defeats. Still, the visitors will not just give up because of that overall score. Zadar are coming to Belgrade to take the win and to start climbing up on the 2017/18 ABA League standings.
Match-up in focus: Filip Čović (FMP) vs. Preston Knowles (Zadar). Two great point guards, whose game style is pretty similar. They can both score plenty of points, while we are about to see who will score more on Monday evening.
Head to head in the regional league: In total 12:7; In Belgrade 8:1.
