Resurrected Partizan NIS seeking for revenge over Krka

ABA League Round 24, Saturday, 3 April 2021:

PARTIZAN NIS - KRKA

Where? Ranko Žeravica Sports Hall, Belgrade

When? 21:00

Story of the game: On Saturday night, Partizan NIS will be hosting Krka at home in Ranko Žeravica Sports Hall in Belgrade. Can they get their revenge for the December defeat?

It is a game that has great value for both squads, heading into the final part of the ABA League season. 

While Partizan are currently placed in the middle of the ABA League standings with a 9:13 record, they still haven’t secured themselves escape from the danger zone near the bottom of the ABA League standings when the regular season ends.

On the other side, Krka might be in trouble in case they do not grab a new pair of points, as they are placed in the group of teams in the danger zone with a record of 7:14. They need to win in order to improve their chances of avoiding the 13th spot after 26 rounds.

Currently both teams are in a similar position when it comes to current shape, as both of them have won 2 of their last five games, with Partizan NIS having won 2 in a row lately, while Krka have been defeated by Borac the last time they stepped on court.

The first time, the two sides have met this season, Krka prevailed by 19 points in a game, that had a shocking outcome for many fans. However, times have changed since then. Can this time the outcome be different?

Tune in on Friday night and find out!

Match-up in focus: The match-up of the game will be the one between the two guards, that are the true leaders of their teams right now.
