ABA League Round 18, Sunday, 28.1.2018:
Where? Dražen Petrović Arena, Zagreb
When? 19:00
Story of the game: This weekend’s ABA League programme will be closed with the game in Zagreb between Cibona and FMP. And it will be another big game for both of the opponents as they both have lots to play for.
Cibona will be trying their best to escape their crisis, which brought them four consecutive defeats. Shall they do so, they will do a large step towards saving themselves from the danger zone at the bottom of the standings. On the other side, FMP are still chasing the Playoffs and the new win would be extremely valuable for them, while a defeat would mean a catastrophe in terms of reaching this goal.
They are however, in a better current shape than Cibona at the moment, having won their last game and 3 out of last 5. Still, they haven’t been too successful in the history of regional competition when playing in Zagreb, so caution is needed on their side!
Match up in focus: Wow, what a clash of big men is coming up in Dražen’s home! Luka Žorić will stand against Michael Ojo! We do not know which one of them would prevail this time but one thing is certain – there will be some monstrous dunking in Zagreb on Sunday night!
Head to head in regional league: In total 7:11; In Zagreb 6:3.
