AdmiralBet ABA League Round 8, Saturday, 13 November 2021:

BORAC - CIBONA

Where? Borac Sports Hall, Čačak

When? 17:00

Story of the game: In the opening game of the Saturday’s AdmiralBet ABA League schedule, Borac will be hosting Cibona at home in Borac Sports Hall, Čačak.

Borac, that are currently on a streak of three straight defeats, will be looking to end their negative run in the game against Cibona. However, for sure it will not be an easy task for coach Marko Marinović and his squad, as Borac have never beaten Cibona yet in the regional competition. Still, winning for them would be crucial, as this would mean the third triumph for them, which would take them away from the danger zone near the bottom of the AdmialBet ABA League standings.

On the other side, Cibona have ended their streak of three straight defeats last round, when they have prevailed over Krka and they will definitely wish to convert their success into a winning streak, by extending their winning mood for another round by beating Borac. This would also secure them a position in the Playoffs zone, which is where they desire to be.

Can Borac beat tradition or will Cibona continue their successful performances from last season? Watch the game and find out!

Match-up in focus: It’s Marko Pecarski vs. Nathan Reuvers! Two big men will battle head to head in the paint and try to take their teams to victory. Both of them are currently the second-leading scorers of their respective squads, with Marko Pecarski averaging 10.7 points per game and Nathan Reuvers 13.1. Who will shine brighter this time?

Head to head in the regional league: In total 0:2; In Čačak 0:1.
