Borac Banja Luka Team News
Borac from Banja Luka entered the season with much lower ambitions than the year before. However, they finished in third place with a record of 9-4 and achieved a solid position before the start of the Final Eight of the regional competition.
In the League of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Borac is the second-best team behind Siroki Brijeg. However, there is a form drop in the season’s second part. They lost by Buducnost 85:63 and Siroki away. The complete game of Banja Luka is based on four players: Jaron Martin, Aleksandar Langovic, Dusan Tanaskovic and Jan Rebec. If one of the bench players scores double figures, Borac’s chances of winning increase.
In the previous two clashes with Siroki Brijeg in the domestic championship, Borac lost. Offensively, they failed both times and if they don’t score a easy points in transition, they can hardly win.

Siroki Brijeg Team News
The form of Siroki Brijeg rises. After a weak start in the ABA 2 league, they consolidated, and throughout 2023 they played excellent basketball on both fronts.
In the domestic championship, they had a 20-0 ratio until last weekend when Buducnost defeated them in Bijeljina 85:78. Regardless of the quality of the championship, the fact that they had 20 wins in a row speaks of a certain quality. Coach Ivan Velic was fifth in the ABA League with this club a few years ago and had a lot of experience. Also, he won the title with Cibona by humiliating Cedevita 4:0 in the 2019 final.
Along with coach Velic, Siroki Brijeg has several other veterans on the field. The first is captain Ive Ivanov who has played many games like this in his career, while Daishon Knight and Emmanuel Little brings extra quality.
Only 2 more days until the start of the 2022/23 NLB #ABALiga2 Playoffs!

Borac Banja Luka vs Siroki Brijeg Prediction
Objectively, several factors are in favor of Siroki Brijeg. Coach Velic has much more experience than his colleague Zoran Kascelan in matches of this importance. Siroki’s players can play defensively much better than Borac, which is usually crucial. Except in the case that the team from Banja Luka has outstanding percentages in shooting from a distance, Siroki Brijeg should win here and advance to the semi-finals of the ABA 2 league.
