2024/25 AdmiralBet ABA League Round 27, Sunday, 13 April 2025:
CEDEVITA OLIMPIJA – CIBONA
Where? Stožice Arena, Ljubljana
When? 17:00
Story of the game: In the Round 27 of the AdmiralBet ABA League Regular Season, Cedevita Olimpija will be hosting Cibona at home in their Stožice Arena in Ljubljana.
It’s a game of two teams that will both try to get back on the winning track after recent defeats, but two of which have fairly different goals and stories of the season so far behind them. While Cedevita Olimpija have been playing well lately, winning 4 games of their last 5 and losing only in the last round on the road in Subotica to Spartak Office Shoes, they need victories in order to be able to continue competing for the 5th place in the standings, while they are currently tied with Igokea m:tel in the 5th place, with 16:10 records.
On the other side, Cibona have only won one game of their last five and are in a 4-games-long losing streak, but they need to bounce back and score a win in Ljubljana in order to move away from the 15th place in the standings, where they are currently placed alone with a 4:22 record, as this is a spot that leads to the AdmiralBet ABA League Qualifiers for the next season.
The first time the two squads met this season, Cedevita Olimpija prevailed 75:66 in Zagreb, while previously in the regional competition, they met 5 times in Ljubljana, with the Dragons winning 4 times and the Wolves once.
Who will prevail this time?
Match-up in focus: It’s Devin Robinson vs. Toni Ročak! Two excellent forwards will battle one against another this time in Stožice Arena. While Robinson has been the top scorer and rebounder of Cedevita Olimpija so far this season, averaging 15.2 points and 5.4 rebounds per game, Ročak has been leading Cibona in rebounding, while coming second in scoring and third in passing, with an average of 10.8 points, 5.6 rebounds and 2 assists made per game. Who will lead his team to th win this time?
Head-to-head score in the regional league: In total 9:2; In Ljubljana 4:1.
