On Saturday night at 19.00, Partizan NIS will be hosting Cedevita Olimpija at home in their Štark Arena in Belgrade in Round 11 of the regional league.
A clash of two former regional league champions is coming up on Saturday night in the Štark Arena and it will be one, that will be of exceptional importance for both squads.
While Partizan NIS are currently occupying the top of the standings with a 9:1 record after 10 rounds, they will for sure wish to win this one to keep things that way, but Cedevita Olimpija will do their best to prevent them from doing so. After two defeats in a row, they need to win in order to keep themselves in the Playoffs zone, as they are entering the Round 11 with a 5:5 record.
The streaks of the two squads are completely different, heading into this showdown. While Partizan NIS have won 2 games in a row, Cedevita Olimpija have lost two in a row.
