ZADAR - CIBONA

Story of the game: In the opening game of the AdmiralBet ABA League Round 3, Zadar will be hosting Cibona at home in Krešimir Ćosić Arena in Zadar.
It will be a game of two teams with a completely different start of the season in the regional competition. Zadar have started their journey with two defeats.

First they have suffered a loss after a brave performance against Partizan NIS at home in Višnjik, only to be defeated a couple of days later on the road in Morača by the newcomers SC Derby.

On the other side, Cibona are experiencing one of the best starts to the AdmiralBet ABA League season in years, after they have defeated both Mornar and Mega Basket in the opening two rounds.

So what is the outcome of the game going to be? The first win of the season for Zadar or third win of the season for Cibona?

Match-up in focus: Can Domagoj Vuković stop Nathan Reuvers? Cibona big man has been dominant in the opening two games of the season for his team, averaging a double-double with 21 points and 10 rebounds achieved per game, which makes him the top scorer and second-leading rebounder of the Wolvers. Stopping him could be crucial for the outcome of the big game in Višnjik. Will it happen? Watch the game and find out!

Head to head in the regional league: in total 21:17; In Zadar 15:4.
