SPLIT – MZT SKOPJE AERODROM

Story of the game: The opening game of the AdmiralBet ABA League Round 25 might as well be the crucial one for both Split and MZT Skopje Aerodrom, as their decisive battles are coming up for this season.

It is a game, where Split need to win in order to strengthen their chances of finding themselves in the Playoffs Zone when the Regular Season ends, while on the other side, Mega MIS need to keep winning in order to escape the last place in the standings, which means relegation to the NLB ABA League 2.

Split are currently positioned at the edge of the Playoffs Zone with the record of 10:14, while MZT Skopje Aerodrom are currently occupying the 14th place in the standings with a record of 5:19, with one win less on their record than Borac Mozzart have.

Lately, both squads have won 2 out of their last 5 games and they have returned to the winning track in the Round 23.

Only one can prevail this time. Which one will it be?

Match-up in focus: The fans in Split Sports Hall will enjoy the pleasure of watching their favourite Dominik Mavra to face Michael Caffey on the point guard position. The two have been the undisputed leaders of their respective squads lately, with Mavra currently being the top passer and second-leading scorer of Split with an average of 16.6 points and 7.3 assists per game, while on the other side, Caffey is leading MZT Skopje Aerodrom in both scoring and passing with the average of 13.5 points and 4.7 assists per game.
