Against Cedevita Junior for a win, which practically secures second place
After celebrating against Zadar and staying in the game for second place, Cibona has the penultimate performance before the start of the playoffs. In the 32nd round of the SuperSport Premier League, they are visiting the neighboring Cedevita Junior, who are in excellent form, having recorded six victories in a row
Cibona is currently third with a 23–8 record (54 points), as Split has secured the top two spots with one point more, holding 24 wins and 7 losses. On the other hand, Cedevita Junior has most likely secured its place in the top division and is now in the playoff zone, sitting eighth with a 12–19 record (43 points).
In both head-to-head matchups this season, Cibona has been successful. First, they won 90–79 at home (played on November 8 last year), and then, on January 25 this year, they celebrated a 94–61 victory in Trnsko.
“This is our third game against Cedevita Junior this season. The previous two wins don’t mean anything in preparing for this match because we are again playing against a different roster and a new coach, so we have to be ready for anything. Toughness, defensive focus, and good shot selection are essential if we want to achieve the desired victory”, said Cibona head coach Ivan Rudež.
“Cedevita Junior is a team that has improved over the past two months. It will certainly be a good game, and I invite all fans to come and support us at Sutinska vrela”, briefly said Cibona player Renato Serdarušić.
The game will be played tomorrow at 8 P.M. at the Sutinska vrela Sports hall. Live broadcast will be available on Sportska televizija.
