AdmiralBet ABA League Round 13, Wednesday, 28 December 2022:

SC DERBY – IGOKEA M:TEL

Where? Morača Sports Hall, Podgorica 

When? 19:00

Story of the game: In the opening game of the AdmiralBet ABA League Round 13, SC Derby will be hosting Igokea m:tel at home in their Morača Sports Hall in Podgorica.

It is a game of two teams that are searching their ways out their winless streaks, with SC Derby having lost 4 games in a row recently and Igokea m:tel 3. And wining in this one will not be important for the triumphant team only in a sense of ending the losing streak and boosting morale, but also due to the fact, that they are the direct competitors for a spot in the Playoffs zone.

Currently, both SC Derby and Igokea m:tel are placed near the edge of the Playoffs Zone, with Igokea m:tel having a 5:7 record after 12 rounds and SC Derby 4:8.

It is therefore clearly evident why a 13th round win would be invaluable for each of the two squads.
