Story of the game: In the opening game of the Round 25 of AdmiralBet ABA League Regular Season, Dubai Basketball will be hosting FMP Soccerbet at home in their Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai.
It’s a game where both of the two squads need a victory. While Dubai Basketball are still chasing the top, as they are currently on the 3rd place with a record of 19:5, FMP Soccerbet are battling for a Playoffs spot, with a record of 12:12 right now in their hands.
The first time the two squads met, FMP Soccerbet prevailed over Dubai 86:84 at home in Belgrade, but this time, a different kind of show is expected. Firstly, because Dubai Basketball are playing at home, but also for the fact that they haven’t been defeated for the last 7 games in a row. On the other and, FMP Soccerbet are entering the game after a defeat in Zadar and they have won 3 out of their last 5 games.
Who will prevail? Tune in on Saturday night and find out!
Match-up in focus: Probably the most exciting match-up of the game can be the one between the two big men, that recently reinforced their squads and both of which are currently the top rebounders of their respective squads. While Jerry Boutsiele is currently the top rebounder of Dubai Basketball, averaging 6.1 rebounds per game, Jacob Stephens is atop of the list of rebounders at the side of FMP Soccerbet, with an average of 7.8 rebounds per game. Who will prevail in the paint this time?
