Story of the game: Sunday evening brings us a very interesting match in Belgrade – Partizan NIS vs. Mega Bemax.
If you just take a look at the standings you will realize how important this game is for Partizan NIS. The black & white team are still chasing the Playoffs, but they have 2 wins less than Mornar, who is currently holding the 4th spot. On top of that, Partizan NIS do not have better head to head score vs. Mornar, which means that they need to score 3 wins more than the team from Bar in the last 4 rounds in order to reach the 2017/18 ABA League Playoffs.
That’s why the Belgrade powerhouse simply has to beat Mega Bemax this weekend.
But, the visitors do not care about what their next rival has to do. Mega Bemax have significantly improved their form lately and they are interested in just one thing – To take the win in Aleksandar Nikolić Hall.
We are about to see who will fulfill its goal on Sunday evening.
Match-up in focus: Novica Veličković is in outstanding form! Partizan NIS captain was named the MVP of January in ABA League, while he was far the best player of his team in the past 4 games. This time, he will confront Mega Bemax forward Vlatko Čančar, one of the players who won the gold medal at the last FIBA European Championship. We are eager to watch this duel.
Head to head in regioanl league: In total 7:2; In Belgrade 3:1.
