Story of the game: Mornar are about to play their last home game in the 2018/19 ABA League regular season and it will not be just an ordinary game... The boys from Bar will host FMP in the match of the round!
There is no doubt that the home fans will come in large numbers to Sports Center Topolica on Sunday evening, because this game is extremely important for Mornar. At this moment, Mornar are among the teams who have the overall score of 7-13 (together with Zadar and Igokea), while they have just 1 single win more than the two last placed teams on the standings (Petrol Olimpija and Krka). Therefore, the boys from Bar are actually fighting for their next-season ABA League status in this match.
FMP have no fear of relegation as they have definitely escaped the danger zone last weekend. Still, with 3 wins out of the last 4 rounds, the Panthers are awaiting this duel in pretty good shape and they might be an even more dangerous opponent when playing without any pressure.
In the 1st part of the regular season Mornar defeated FMP in a thrilling game in Belgrade - 84:82. Do not be surprised if these two teams play another super exciting match.
Match-up in focus: Are you ready to watch the duel between some of the best 3-point shooters of the 2018/19 ABA League regular season? Antabia Waller (Mornar) is the player with the most 3-pointers scored in this season - 46, while Marko Jeremić is holding the 3rd place on that list with 42 shots made. We are eager to find out who will be better on Sunday evening.
Head to head in the regular season: In total 3:2; In Bar 1:1.
