ABA League Round 10, Sunday, 13 December 2020:
Where? Stožice Arena, Ljubljana
When? 21:00
Story of the game: Cedevita Olimpija will host Cibona in Stožice Arena on Sunday evening in the last match of Round 10.
Cedevita Olimpija are awaiting this match in high spirits as just a couple of days ago they managed to seal their spot in the 2020/21 EuroCup Top 16 stage. On top of that, Cedevita Olimpija’s recent form is pretty impressive as they have won 4 out of the last 5 games in the 2020/21 ABA League regular season and their current overall score is 5-1.
On the other side Cibona have been struggling lately, losing three games in a row in ABA League, however they managed to break that losing streak last weekend when they scored a very important win against FMP at home court.
In the previous season the games between these two teams were very exciting. In their first clash, Cedevita Olimpija triumphed in Ljubljana by 79:70, while in the 2nd part of the season the same team grabbed the win in Zagreb – 84:82.
Match-up in focus: Mateo Drežnjak is the top scorer of Cibona in the ongoing season and the 13th best scorer in the league at the moment. He will now face a player who has very similar characteristics and whose scoring skills are also quite impressive. Obviously, we are talking about Cedevita Olimpija's star player Jaka Blažić who is not just the top scorer of the Ljubljana side, but he is also the 2nd best scorer of the league at the moment.
Head to head in the regional league: In total 2:0; In Ljubljana 1:0.
