Story of the game: Mega Mozzart will host Crvena zvezda mts this Monday in Round 19 of the 2021/22 season.
When we look at their recent results in AdmiralBet ABA League we can see that both sides are in a pretty good form. Mega Mozzart have won 3 out of the previous 4 games and the Pink troops are now right at the border of the Playoffs zone with the overall score of 8-8.
At the same time, Crvena zvezda mts look just unstoppable in the regional league as the reigning champions scored 13 consecutive wins and they currently have the overall score of 15-1. Zvezda suffered their one and only defeat so far in this season in October last year when they were beaten by Igokea m:tel on the road.
It also has to be mentioned that Mega Mozzart are fully rested for the upcoming game as they had a whole week to prepare themselves for the clash against the reigning champions. On the other side, Crvena zvezda mts played two tough games in Turkish Airlines EuroLeague over the last week, so this will be their 3rd game in less than 7 days.
Match-up in focus: Nikola Jović (Mega Mozzart) is considered as one of the top prospects in this entire region and he is playing very, very good lately as he recorded double-digits in scoring in each of the previous 7 games. Jović will now play against one of the best forwards not just in our region, but in the whole Europe – Nikola Kalinić (Crvena zvezda mts) – and their duel can decide plenty of things in the upcoming match.
Head-to-head in the regional league: In total 0:20; At Mega Mozzart’s home court 0:9.
