Story of the game: The real New Year’s party in Split is scheduled for January 2nd as on this day the famous Yellow team are about to host reigning AdmiralBet ABA league champions Crvena zvezda Meridianbet.
Split have entered the new year in pretty good mood as they scored 2 wins in the last 3 rounds and with the overall score of 4-8 they are just one win away from the Playoffs zone.
On the other side, Crvena zvezda Meridianbet did suffer a heartbreaking defeat against Barcelona in their last game in 2022, but knowing the character of this team, that one defeat will not disrupt the players. Zvezda, who currently have the score of 10-1, will try to bounce back in Split and extend their winning streak in AdmiralBet ABA League that now stretches to 6 games.
Match-up in focus: Dominik Mavra (Split) vs. Facundo Campazzo (Crvena zvezda Meridianbet).
Mavra is playing a season of his life as he is averaging 17.7 points, 6 assists and 4.2 rebounds per game. He was the MVP of the previous round and he will definitely be the biggest threat to Crvena zvezda Meridianbet defense in the upcoming match.
On the other side, the Belgrade team have Facundo Campazzo. The Argentine point guard had a spectacular debut last week when he showed off all of his magical basketball skills in the match against Borac Mozzart, while he will now try to pick up where he left off in the previous round.
Head-to-head score in the regional league: In total 2:16; In Split 2:7.
