ABA League Round 15, Monday, 14.1.2019:
Where? FMP Sports Hall, Belgrade
When? 18:00
Story of the game: Almost 9 years have passed since FMP defeated Budućnost VOLI for the last time in the regional league… It was March 20, 2010 when the Panthers celebrated their last triumph against the squad from Podgorica. From that moment till this day, these two teams have faced each other 5 times and Budućnost VOLI have won all of those 5 games.
Will something change this Monday evening?
Well, FMP have had some pretty impressive wins lately, including the ones against Mega Bemax and Zadar. On the other side, Budućnost VOLI have returned on the winning path both in ABA League and in EuroLeague, so they are approaching the following match in high spirits.
Taking all of that into concern, the last game of Round 15 should be very, very interesting to watch.
Match-up in focus: FMP’s point guard Matic Rebec have had some impressive performances in this season. But, now he will face quite a challenge as his direct rival will be no other than a 2-time NBA champion – Norris Cole of Budućnost VOLI. We are about to see who will win this duel.
Head to head in the regional league: In total 7:10; In Belgrade 4:4.
