Thursday’s schedule – Derby time in Koper

Four games of Round 13 will be played on Thursday evening.

Everything will start from Vršac, with the clash of the two last placed teams on the standings – Vršac (1-11) vs. Helios Suns (4-8). The home side is passing through a really tough period. Vršac have 9 defeats in a row in ABA 2, but perhaps now is the time to break that awful streak. Simply because Helios Suns have lost all of their 6 away games so far in the championship.

The next game of the day is the one between Zrinjski (4-8) and Rogaška (4-8). They are both placed in the bottom part of the standings, but the home team is definitely in a better rhythm. Zrinjski have won 3 out of the last 4 games in ABA 2, while Rogaška are on 3-game losing streak. On top of that, Rogaška have 6 straight away defeats in the ongoing season.

The derby of the whole round will be played in Koper, where 1^st placed Sixt Primorska (11-1) will host 4^th placed Spars (8-4). Sixt Primorska suffered their very first defeat in the ongoing season last week, so they now want to bounce back and keep the distance from the teams that are trying to take over the leader’s spot. Spars are among the teams who are chasing the leader and their 4-2 score on the road gives them the right to dream about the win in the upcoming match.

Round 13 will be closed with the clash between Split (7-5) and Dynamic VIP PAY (5-7). Split are just outside the Playoffs zone and if they win this match they may actually return among the top 4 teams already at the end of the week. On the other side, Dynamic VIP PAY are trying to catch up with the leading teams and a win in this match would mean them a lot in that race.
