AdmiralBet ABA League Round 6, Saturday, 30 October 2021:
KRKA – SC DERBY
Where? Leon Štukelj Sports Hall, Novo mesto
When? 21:00
Story of the game: On Saturday night, Krka will be hosting SC Derby at home in their Leon Štukelj Sports Hall.
It is a game of two squads, that are having a similar season currently, but totally different appearance last round. While Krka suffered a painful blow on the road in Belgrade against Partizan NIS, SC Derby have prevailed over high-flying Cibona at home in Podgorica.
This time the two squads meet in Novo mesto, where Krka haven’t lost a single game yet this season, and Dalibor Damjanović’s guys will be counting on this advantage, besides the fact that SC Derby seem not to be playing as well on the road as at home, having won only one out of their three road games this season.
So, can Krka use their home-court advantage to tie themselves in the standings with SC Derby, or will the latter pull away? Watch the game and find out!
Match-up in focus: Rok Stipčević against Kyle Vinales! What an exciting match-up of the two guards, that are on fire this season, as they are both leading the way in scoring for their squads. While Stipčević is averaging 18 points per game this season, Vinales is putting in 22.8 points per game so far. Which one will outgun the other this time?
Head to head in the regional league: 0:0.
