AdmiralBet ABA League Round 1, Friday, 24 September 2021:

MORNAR - BARSKO ZLATO - CIBONA

Where? Topolica Sports Hall, Bar

When? 18:00

Story of the game: In the first game of the Admiral Bet ABA League 2021/22 season, Mornar - Barsko zlato will be hosting Cibona at home in their Topolica Sports Hall. All eyes of the basketball fans in the region will be turned to Bar.

While Mornar, just like in any of the previous few seasons, has great appetites, heading into the new season in the regional competition, Cibona is highly ambitious at the very beginning of the new campaign, as they have won each and every preseason game this summer and therefore received the confirmation of the quality and vast talent of their squad.

So, the moment of truth is coming up, as one of the two teams would get the boost for their great ambitions ahead of this season.

Which one will it be? Mornar hopes that the tradition (they have only lost one home game to Cibona in five seasons in the regional competition so far) would once more be repeated, while Cibona hopes to end it in the best possible way – right at the start of the season.

Match-up in focus: Two players, that might have a great impact in the 2021/22 season will play head to head this time around, as Mornar and Cibona face in Bar. It’s Vladimir Mihailović against Lovro Gnjidić. Both of them have had great preseason with their squads and we’ll just have to wait and see which of them shines brighter this time around.

Head to head in the regional league: in total 7:3; In Bar 4:1.
