Who will stay on the winning path – Borac Mozzart or Split?

2024/25 AdmiralBet ABA League Round 6, Sunday, 27 October 2024:

BORAC MOZZART - SPLIT

Where? Borac Sports Hall, Čačak 

When? 16:00

Story of the game: After the opening five rounds of the new season, Borac Mozzart and Split have the same overall score 2-3, while this Sunday evening the two sides will face each other in Čačak.

And, each team is approaching this game after scoring a huge win last weekend.

Borac Mozzart prevailed over Mornar-Barsko zlato after miraculously forcing overtime as just 10 seconds before the end of the 4^th quarter they were down by two points and their opponents had 4 free throws… You all probably know the rest of the story. Mornar-Barsko zlato made just one out of their four free throws, while then Paulius Valinskas made a stunning buzzer-beating 3-pointer to force overtime. The Čačak crew then went on to win the match in overtime and significantly boost the team confidence ahead of the following games.

Meanwhile, Split faced Mega MIS last weekend, who was one of the undefeated teams in the league back then. And the Yellow crew played a fantastic game. Split have defeated Mega MIS to once again prove that they are capable of achieving big things in this season as that was their 2^nd really huge win since the start of the 2024/25 campaign. Recall that before beating last year’s semifinalists Mega MIS, Split have also defeated the reigning champions Crvena zvezda Meridianbet.

Match-up in focus: Borac Mozzart’s last week hero Paulius Valinskas is currently the 2^nd best scorer of his team in the ongoing season with 11.4 points per game.

On the other side, Split’s captain Shannon Shorter is having another amazing season as last week he scored 22 points in the win against Mega MIS, while he is currently the 2^nd best scorer of his team in the 2024/25 AdmiralBet ABA League campaign with 15.4 points per game.

Head-to-head score in the regional league: In total 5:3; In Čačak 3:1.
