ABA League Round 17, Monday, 22.1.2018:
MZT SKOPJE AERODROM - CRVENA ZVEZDA MTS
Where? Jane Sandanski Hall, Skopje
When? 18:00
Story of the game: Right after they have finally got back on the winning track by defeating Cibona last weekend, MZT Skopje Aerodrom are facing an extremely difficult challenge. The last placed team on the standings will face none other than the reigning ABA League champions – Crvena zvezda mts.
At this moment, this challenge definitely looks like “mission impossible” for the hosts, but be quite sure that MZT Skopje Aerodrom will do everything they can to try pulling off a major upset.
At the same time, Crvena zvezda mts are still fighting for the top spot and they can’t afford losing the games like this. That’s why the red & white troops are coming to Skopje with only one goal – To take the win!
Match-up in focus: Dominik Mavra was the MVP of the last round in ABA League and MZT Skopje Aerodrom have high hopes that their point guard can repeat that performance. Still, on the other side will be Crvena zvezda mts floor general Taylor Rochestie who is among the players with the highest chances to win the MVP of the season award…
Head to head in regional league: In total 1:10; In Skopje 1:4.
