AdmiralBet ABA League Round 5, Sunday, 24 October 2021:

MORNAR-BARSKO ZLATO - CRVENA ZVEZDA MTS

Where? Topolica Sports Hall, Bar

When? 17:00

Story of the game: A very special game will be played in bar this Sunday evening as Mornar-Barsko zlato are about to host Crvena zvezda mts in Round 5 of the 2021/22 regular season.

Mornar-Barsko zlato are having lot problems at the start of the new season. The last year’s semifinalists are still winless in the AdmiralBet ABA League as they have lost all 4 games so far in the championship and they want to change that as soon as possible. Still, if they want to finally break the ice and end their losing streak this weekend, they will need to beat no other than the reigning champions.

Crvena zvezda mts once again look very powerful and their performances in the opening weeks of the new season show that there is a good reason why the red-and-whites are considered as one of the main candidates to win the title. Crvena zvezda mts have so far triumphed in 3 out of 4 games and their one and only goal ahead of the game in Bar is to add another win to their season record.

Match-up in focus: Nemanja Gordić has been one of the best players of Mornar-Barsko zlato in the past few games. Gordić is the team’s 2^nd best scorer and he loves playing against Crvena zvezda mts as some of his best performances in AdmiralBet ABA League came against no other than the Belgrade team. On the other side, Nathan Wolters has already proved to be a very important player for Crvena zvezda mts in the new season and considering that the red-and-whites will probably be without Nikola Ivanović, many things will depend on the performance of the American point guard.

Head-to-head score in the regional league: In total 2:11; In Bar 2:4.
