In the 18th round of the regional AdmiralBet ABA League, SC Derbi will host Zadar tomorrow at 17,30:XNUMX PM in the iconic "Peka".
A great test awaits Petar Mijović's team at Višnjik.
"Another difficult away game is ahead of us. Zadar is an experienced team that has built a system of play in both directions for years with coach Jusup. A very physically good team, which excels in playing on the open field, they are dedicated to playing strongly from the low post and with defense on their main player Mihailović... these two of their strongest options will be of utmost importance to stop," believes Mijović.
SC Derbi has a record of six wins and 11 losses, while Zadar has a positive record of nine wins and eight losses.
"I expect us to be engaged offensively and to adapt to their defense and different variations, especially in the pick-and-roll part. We have personnel problems before this match and it is uncertain what lineup we will play in, which makes our job even more difficult," concluded Mijović.
The "Students" broke a losing streak with an away win over Saprtak, then celebrated a home triumph over Cibona. This somewhat boosted the team's confidence before the match in the beautiful "Krešimir Ćosić" hall - the popular Peka.
"We are facing a tough match against the Zadar team. Although we achieved a convincing victory in the first part of the season, we know that the match in Zadar will not be easy at all. We have to give our all and, above all, control the rebound, which will bring us one step closer to our goal, which is to continue our good play and winning streak," says student center Filip Anđušić.
SC Derbi was convincing against Zadar in the first half at "Morača" with 86:62.
Buducnost Voli will host Igokea on Sunday at 19 p.m., while Mornar Barsko Zlato will host Cedevita Olimpija an hour earlier.
