Sunday night showdown in Belgrade – FMP Soccerbet host Krka

2024/25 AdmiralBet ABA League Round 23, Sunday, 16 March 2025:

FMP SOCCERBET – KRKA 

Where? FMP Arena, Belgrade

When? 17:00

Story of the game: In the opening game of the Sunday’s AdmiralBet ABA League schedule, FMP Soccerbet will be hosting Krka at home in their FMP Arena in Belgrade.

It’s a game of two squads that have plenty to fight for in the remainder of the Regular Season. FMP Soccerbet are on an 11:11 record after 22 rounds and they are currently placed just on the edge of the Playoffs Zone. Of course, this means that they need to keep winning in order to secure their Top 8 Spot in the remaining 8 rounds. On the other hand, Krka are on a 4:18 record right now, sharing the 14th place in the standings with Cibona, with only Mornar-Barsko zlato (1:21) behind them. They need to grab a couple of wins until the end in order to calmly wait for the end of the Regular Season to approach, in order to avoid the relegation zone for sure.

Previously, FMP Soccerbet have confidently hosted Krka in Belgrade, as they won in 7 out of 8 mutual encounters in the Serbian capital so far. Also, they have prevailed over Krka in a dramatic double-overtime encounter in Novo mesto back in November in the first meeting of the two sides this season in the regional competition.

Will FMP Soccerbet manage to maintain their positive tradition with the Novo mesto squad or will Krka strike back this time?
