Story of the game: A very important match will be played on Tuesday evening as Krka are about to face Crvena zvezda mts in postponed game of Round 18.
A victory in this match would mean so much to each side. If Krka grab the win, then they will secure their ABA League status for the next season. On the other side, If Crvena zvezda mts prevail in Novo mesto, then they will take over the top spot on the standings and they will be very close to finish the regular season at the 1st place.
Both sides have scored some big wins recently. Krka defeated Split couple of days ago in Novo mesto which was a must-win match for the green-and-white troops, while Crvena zvezda mts scored two huge wins against Cedevita Olimpija in the battle for the Playoffs.
Crvena zvezda mts have a much better head-to-head score vs. Krka, however in their last game in Novo mesto it was Krka who seized the win.
In the first part of the season, Crvena zvezda mts scored a comfortable win vs. Krka in Belgrade – 88:62.
Match-up in focus: Adin Vrabac was the best player of Krka in that big win against Split that we have mentioned earlier in this text. Vrabac finished that match with 18 points and 8 rebounds. On the other side, Ognjen Dobrić made a stunning performance for Crvena zvezda mts in the away match vs. Cedevita Olimpija as he scored 26 points to lead his team toward a win.
We are about to see whether Vrabac and Dobrić will manage to shine again in another huge game for their teams.
Head to head in the regular season: In total 6:19; In Novo mesto: 4:8.
