SC DERBY – KRKA

Where? Morača Sports Hall, Podgorica

When? 20:00

Story of the game: In the opening game of the AdmiralBet ABA League Round 5, SC Derby will be hosting Krka at home in their Morača Sports Hall in Podgorica.

In the early game of the Round 5, SC Derby will be hosting Krka already on Thursday. It will be a game of two teams that haven’t started their AdmiralBet ABA League season just the way they had desired, as SC Derby are right now on a 1:3 record and Krka on a 0:4 record. So far, SC Derby have prevailed over Split, while losing to Borac Mozzart, FMP Soccerbet and Igokea m:tel, while Krka have been defeated in tough encounters against Partizan Mozzart Bet, U-BT Cluj-Napoca, Igokea m:tel and Dubai Basketball, while putting on brave resistance against each of the opponents so far.

Now, Krka are coming to Podgorica in pursuit of their first win of the season, which would tie themselves with SC Derby in the standings. On the other side, SC Derby, of course, have other plans, they wish to prevail over the Novo mesto side, and move away from the bottom of the standings by 2 wins.

Previously, Krka have never ever managed to prevail over SC Derby on the road in Podgorica. Can this time be the first or will the tradition continue? Tune in on Thursday night and find out!
