2024/25 AdmiralBet ABA League Round 29, Sunday, 27 April 2025:
CRVENA ZVEZDA MERIDIANBET – KRKA
Where? Belgrade Arena, Belgrade
When? 20:00
Story of the game: On Sunday night, Crvena zvezda Meridianbet will be hosting Krka at home in their Belgrade Arena in Belgrade.
It’s a game which might not matter as much for the red and white of Belgrade, as it does for Krka, as Zvezda already know that they will finish the Regular Season in the fourth place in the standings, while on the other end, Krka are still battling to avoid the danger zone near the very bottom. They are currently on a 5:23 record, just one win above Cibona, that are the 15th placed team of the AdmiralBet ABA League right now.
Lately, Zvezda have been more successful in the regional competition than the Novo mesto squad, with a 3:2 record over the last 5 rounds, while Krka have only won 1 of their last 5. Also, Zvezda are entering the game after one defeat, in the Eternal Derby against Partizan Mozzart Bet, while Krka have lost 2 in a row.
Previously, Krka have only prevailed twice over Crvena zvezda Meridianbet in 15 mutual encounters in Belgrade in the entire history of the regional competition. Can they do it for the third time?
Match-up in focus: Perhaps the most interesting match-up of the game could be the one between Codi Miller-McIntyre and Tayler Persons in the backcourt. While Miller-McIntyre has been the second-leading scorer and third-leading passer for Crvena zvezda Meridianbet so far this season, averaging 10.3 points and 3.8 assists per game, Persons is averaging 14.6 points and 4.8 assists per game as Krka’s top scorer and passer.
Head-to-head score in the regional league: In total 25:6; In Belgrade 13:2.
