Cedevita Olimpija host MZT Skopje Aerodrom in legendary Tivoli

AdmiralBet ABA League Round 5, Saturday, 29 October 2022:

CEDEVITA OLIMPIJA – MZT SKOPJE AERODROM

Where? Tivoli Sports Hall, Ljubljana

When? 18:00

Story of the game: In Tivoli Sports Hall, Cedevita Olimpija will be hosting MZT Skopje Aerodrom on Saturday night.

It’s a game with two squads, that have totally different stories this season. While Cedevita Olimpija started the season with two victories, they have suffered the first defeat in the Round 4 of the 2022/23 AdmiralBet ABA League season.

On the other side, the newcomers MZT Skopje Aerodrom have suffered defeats in each of the opening three rounds of the season, but have bounced back in Round 4 at home court in Jane Sandanski Arena in Skopje, to prevail over SC Derby and achieve their first success this season.

The question that arises ahead of the clash in Tivoli Sports Hall is whether Cedevita Olimpija can get back on the winning track after their defeat in Podgorica last weekend, or can MZT Skopje Aerodrom go on the winning streak instead.

Which of the two squads can do it? Tune in on Saturday night and find out!

Match-up in focus: For sure, the most interesting match-up this time will be the one between Yogi Ferrell on the side of Cedevita Olimpija and Mike Caffey on the side of MZT Skopje Aerodrom. The two Americans have been undisputed leaders of their respective squads so far this season and we expect nothing less from them this time around. During the opening four rounds, both of them have been the top scorers of their squads, with Yogi averaging 18.3 points per game and Mike 12.8. And while Ferrell has also been the top passer of Cedevita Olimpija so far this season with 5.3 assists dished out per game this season, Caffey has been dishing out 5 as the second-leading passer of MZT this season. Who will lead his team to the win in Tivoli?

Head-to-head score in the regional league: In total 0:0.
