ABA League Round 22, Friday, 19 March 2021:
FMP - CIBONA
Where? FMP Arena, Belgrade
When? 18:00
Story of the game: Important game is coming up in Belgrade, where FMP will be hosting Cibona in the Round 22 of the ABA League season.
One thing is clear ahead of the Friday’s Belgrade showdown. The team that wins it, will escape the danger zone near the bottom of the ABA League standings and will be breathing a lot easier ahead of the final 4 rounds of the season.
Currently, both Cibona and FMP hold 7 wins in their pockets, 2 more than the last-placed Borac with 5 rounds to go, so it is clear how important the triumph would be this time.
Speaking of the odds, both teams have won twice over the past 5 rounds, with Cibona losing the last two games and FMP winning their last one.
Can Cibona turn the streaks around this time or will they continue? It’s worth to mention that Cibona have prevailed over FMP on the road only once in the entire history of their 11 games played. Can this time be different?
Match-up in focus: It will be interesting to see the clash of Stefan Đorđević of FMP battle against Roko Prkačin of Cibona. Two young guns will battle for the supremacy in the paint, which could well decide the outcome of the game in Belgrade. Who will come out on top?
Head to head in the regional league: In total 15:9; In Belgrade 10:1.
