2017/18 ABA League Regular Season, Round 14, Saturday, 30.12.2017:
Where? Laktaši Sports Hall
When? 17:00
Story of the game: There will again be a festival of basketball in Laktaši, as Igokea will be hosting Cedevita, one of the ABA League powerhouses. And, the home side have their ambitions, despite the fact that the guests are the one chasing the first place in the standings – not without the reason, as they have taken their scalp once this season already.
On the other side, Cedevita’s desire for revenge is just another motive for Jure Zdovc’s squad. They are full of confidence, after they have beaten high-flying Zadar last round and are on a five-games long winning streak right now in the ABA League.
On the other side, Igokea have won just twice in the past five games and wish to improve their impression.
Tradition is totally on the side of Cedevita. The Zagreb team have won 11 games against Igokea so far in the ABA League, while
Igosi have won twice. In Laktaši, Cedevita have won five out of six encounters of these two sides.
Match-up in focus: Two experienced and high-quality ABA League veterans will face at the guard position, as Roko-Leni Ukić, one of the hottest names of the league at the moment will be challenging Vuk Radivojević at his home court. We do not know which one will be more successful this time, but we can promise an excellent showdown of these two leaders of their teams!
Head to head in regional league: In total 2:11; In Laktaši 1:5.
