Krka host Mega Mozzart in Novo mesto

AdmiralBet ABA League Round 16, Friday, 22 April 2022:

KRKA – MEGA MOZZART

Where? Leon Štukelj Sports Hall, Novo mesto

When? 17:00

Story of the game: In the opening game of the Saturday’s AdmiralBet ABA League schedule, Krka will be hosting Mega Mozzart at home in their Leon Štukelj Sports Hall in Novo mesto. It is a game, that is far from being unimportant to any of the two squads, despite the fact that it might look so at first sight.

While Krka have also been relegated to the NLB ABA League 2 for the forthcoming season, they will for sure wish to win in front of their home crowd in the only AdmiralBet ABA League game left for them this season, in order to end their 6 games long winless streak.

On the other side, Mega Mozzart need to win in order to prevent Borac from getting in front of them in the standings, which could push them into the AdmiralBet ABA League Qualifiers for the next season.

The first time that these two squads have met this season has been dramatic, with Mega Mozzart prevailing over Krka at home court by only a point.

How will it end this time?

Match-up in focus: Perhaps the most interesting match-up this time coming up will be the one between big young guns Jurij Macura and Karlo Matković. The two have been playing well lately and have been dominant forces of their respective squads under both rims. Currently, Macura is averaging 5.1 rebounds per game in the AdmiralBet ABA League and Matković 6. Who will come out on top this time?

Head to head in the regional league: In total 6:9; In Novo mesto 5:2.
