Story of the game: Crvena zvezda Meridianbet will host FMP Soccerbet this Sunday evening in Round 15 of the 2024/25 AdmiralBet ABA League regular season.
When it comes to the current form, Crvena zvezda Meridianbet are currently the best team in the league as the reigning champions are on an 11-game winning streak in the regional competition. On top of that, the red-and-whites can brag that they have already started off the new year with a win as they defeated Baskonia on the road on January 2 in the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague.
Meanwhile, FMP Soccerbet finished the year 2024 with two consecutive defeats, with the last one being pretty painful as the Panthers dropped an 8-point lead in the final minute of the game against Budućnost VOLI. Yet, despite that shocking defeat, FMP Soccerbet showed to everyone that they can be a worthy opponent even to the strongest teams in the league and that if they continue with these performance, it is only a matter of time when they will stun some of the regional giants.
Crvena zvezda Meridianbet are currently sharing the top of the table with Partizan Mozzart Bet and Budućnost VOLI as all three teams have the overall score of 12:2. On the other side, FMP Soccerbet are sitting just outside the Top 8 zone at the moment as they have the overall score of 7-7.
Match-up in focus: It will be very interesting to watch the duel between two fantastic scorers – Isaiah Canaan (Crvena zvezda Meridianbet) and Joshua Scott (FMP Soccerbet).
Crvena zvezda Meridianbet sharp shooter Isaiah Canaan was in the spotlight in the recent days as he scored the game-winning basket in the match against Baskonia in the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague. Canaan is the 5th best scorer of the red-and-whites in the ongoing season with 8.8 points per game.
On the other side, Joshua Scott made a stunning performance on his debut for FMP Soccerbet in the previous round when he scored 21 points in the match against Budućnost VOLI. Do not forget that before that, Scott was breaking some records in the NLB ABA League 2 season as in the last game of the group stage he scored 53 points!
Head-to-head score in the regional league: In total 24:8; At Crvena zvezda Meridianbet home court 13:2.
