Story of the game: In the opening game of the AdmiralBet ABA League Round 16, Split will be hosting FMP Meridian at home in their Split Sports Hall in Split.

It will be a clash of two sides, that have plenty to fight for right now. Split are on a 5:10 record, just below the Playoffs Zone and they need to keep winning in order to find themselves among the Top 8 when the Regular Season ends. On the other side, FMP Meridian are currently on an 11:4 record, just below the top of the standings and they will for sure do everything they can in order to win the game, so that they would improve their chances of a home court advantage in the Quarter-finals in case they qualify for the Playoffs.

History reveals that the games in Gripe between the two sides have always been tight and in 7 clashes between the two, Split won 4 games and FMP Meridian 3.

How will it end this time?

And while Frazier is also the top scorer of FMP Meridian with 20.9 points scored per game, Dominik Mavra adds 16.7 per game as the second-leading scorer of Split. Who will lead his team to the win this time?

Head-to-head score in the regional league: In total 4:11; In Split 4:3.
