PARTIZAN MOZZART BET - MORNAR-BARSKO ZLATO
Where? Štark Arena, Belgrade
When? 19:00
Story of the game: Partizan Mozzart Bet is one of just two teams in the 2022/23 AdmiralBet ABA League regular season that is still undefeated at home court. And, the black-and-whites will try to keep that perfect record in the match against Mornar-Barsko zlato on Sunday evening.
Partizan Mozzart Bet will host this game in Aleksandar Nikolić Sports Hall, the same place where they scored a sweet win against their arch rivals Crvena zvezda Meridianbet in the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague on Friday evening. Therefore, the Belgrade team might have a packed gym on their side as the black-and-white fans will certainly want to come and congratulate their heroes for the big derby win.
On the other side, Mornar-Barsko zlato is starting their life without league’s top scorer Daron Russell who has moved to Galatasaray Istanbul. The Bar troops signed Jordan Goldwire to replace Russell and we are about to see how will that work out on the court.
Match-up in focus: Zach LeDay (Partizan Mozzart Bet) vs. Marko Pecarski (Mornar-Barsko zlato).
Mornar-Barsko zlato will have to find a way to stop Partizan Mozzart Bet big guys down in the paint, if they want to have a chance to win this match.
Therefore, Marko Pecarski, who is averaging 13.9 points and 9.1 rebounds per game, will have a difficult task of trying to outplay Zach LeDay, who was Partizan Mozzart Bet’s hero in the Belgrade derby on Friday evening.
Head-to-head score in the regional league: In total 9:4; In Belgrade 5:1.
