Almost 20 years have passed since Krka scored their last win in Podgorica against Budućnost VOLI. The boys from Novo mesto triumphed in SC Morača in their first ever away game against Budućnost VOLI in the regional league back in 2002, while after that they lost 12 road games in a row against the blue-and-whites.

AdmiralBet ABA League Round 12, Saturday, 18 December 2021:

BUDUĆNOST VOLI - KRKA

Where? Morača Sports Hall, Podgorica

When? 21:00

Story of the game: Almost 20 years have passed since Krka scored their last win in Podgorica against Budućnost VOLI. The boys from Novo mesto triumphed in SC Morača in their first ever away game against Budućnost VOLI in the regional league back in 2002, while after that they lost 12 road games in a row against the blue-and-whites.

Will Krka end that losing streak this weekend?

Well, the odds are not really on their side as Krka haven’t scored a single away win in this season. So far, the green-and-whites have played 6 road games in the 2021/22 AdmiralBet ABA league season and they have lost all of them. On top of that, we are about to see if Krka’s troops have managed to recover from that tough defeat against Crvena zvezda mts in the previous round when they blew an 18-point lead in the last quarter.

At the same time, Budućnost VOLI are confident that they will add another home-court win against Krka to their record. The Podgorica team have won the previous two games in the AdmiralBet ABA League, while it is very important to mention that the blue-and-whites have a perfect score at home court in the ongoing season as they have won all 6 games so far that were played in SC Morača.

Match-up in focus: In this match we will watch a direct duel between two top-class point guards who are among the top 5 scorers of the 2021/22 AdmiralBet ABA League season. Justin Cobbs is the top scorer of Budućnost VOLI and the 4th best scorer of the season so far, while Krka's star player Rok Stipčević is currently the top scorer of the 2021/22 AdmiralBet ABA League championship.

Therefore, their duel is something you should not miss.

Head-to-head score in the regional league: In total 18:8; In Podgorica 12:1.
