Story of the game: FMP Meridian will host Cibona this Sunday evening in Round 22 and this game brings us one pretty incredible streak that started 18 years ago and is still running.
FMP Meridian and Cibona have so far faced each other 12 times in Belgrade in the regional league and the score is 11:1 for the Panthers.

Will that streak extend or will it end in the upcoming match? We are about to find out the answer on Sunday evening, but before that we should say that this game is very important for each side as both FMP Meridian and Cibona aim to clinch a place in the Playoffs.
FMP Meridian (10-9) are currently in a slightly better position as they have one win more than Cibona (9-10), while it is also important to know that the Panthers triumphed in Zagreb in the 1st part of the season by 69:66.
