Who will keep the perfect score – Crvena zvezda mts or FMP Meridian?

AdmiralBet ABA League Round 4, Monday, 24 October 2022:

CRVENA ZVEZDA MTS - FMP MERIDIAN

Where? Aleksandar Nikolić Sports Hall, Belgrade

When? 18:00

Story of the game: The two Belgrade rivals are still undefeated in the 2022/23 AdmiralBet ABA League season. Yet, only one of them can keep the perfect score this Monday evening as they will face each other in Aleksandar Nikolić Sports Hall.

Crvena zvezda mts have played two games so far in the regular season and they have won both of them. The reigning champions have firstly defeated league newcomers MZT Skopje Aerodrom, while after that they prevailed over their big rivals Budućnost VOLI to stay on the winning path.

Now, Crvena zvezda mts will face another team with the perfect score as FMP Meridian were sharing the top spot on the standings before this round with the overall score of 3-0. The Panthers have previously defeated Mega MIS, Borac Mozzart and Split, while this will most certainly be their toughest challenge so far in this season.

It is important to mention that FMP Meridian had the whole week to prepare for the upcoming game, while on the other side Crvena zvezda mts had quite a busy schedule over the past 7 days during which they played two road games in the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague.

Match-up in focus: Crvena zvezda mts new point guard Luca Vildoza played his first game for the red-and-whites couple of days ago in the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague and he showed that he might be a huge addition for the Belgrade crew as he scored 10 points for 17 minutes that he spent on court. On the other side, FMP Meridian will try to answer via Trent Frazier who made a fantastic performance last weekend when he made a double-double with 21 points and 11 assists.

Head-to-head score in the regional league: In total 20:8; At Crvena zvezda mts home court 11:2.
