Cibona Team News
This season, Cibona is making some unrealistic results, at least in terms of players, when we compare the situation in the club, and the financial picture, but also when we compare the quality of the roster with other teams. We do not think that we are belittling individual Cibona players, as if they are not up to the task, they convinced us this season and proved that they are not where they are by chance. Cibona is a great showcase for individual players to continue their careers. And whether one of them will stay in the club remains to be seen.
The situation in the club is very difficult, the players received only one salary this season, and the club is threatened with closure, which would be a great defeat for the City of Zagreb, Croatian and European basketball!
Josip Sesar and his Cibona made the biggest surprise of this season after defeating Crvena zvezda in Draženov Dom. The main player of Cibona is Lovro Mazalin, who at the end of the season has a lot of help from Borna Kapusta and Filip Bundovic. Bundovic, who is a heavy center, shoots a high percentage of three-pointers from the central position.
FMP Team News
The team from the suburbs of Belgrade entered the season very well, for a long time they were tied for first place with Partizan and Crvena zvezda. All this went much easier when Trent Fraizer Jr. was on the team. Fraizer left FMP at the beginning of the year and joined Zenit. The fact that in a very short time, he became the leader of the Zenit team speaks volumes of how far Fraizer is from the rest of the team.
FMP tried to compensate for the absence of Fraizer, and they brought in Austin Tilghman, who did not stay long in Zeleznik, as well as Charlie Moore, who became the main offensive option and scored 31 points in the match against Zadar. Charles Manning also arrived, who also brings some width to the attack.
Nenad Stefanović’s team has a large number of experienced players who can make a difference, such as Valinskas, Jenksins, and Beech, but also young players who do the dirty work. Especially this season, Nikola Šaranović stood out, playing excellently in both directions.

Cibona vs FMP Prediction
We think that Cibona has much bigger problems than the match with FMP. When salaries are late for a couple of months, motivation is lost among players. We think that FMP has a much wider and better squad and that they will win this match. It should be borne in mind that Cibona is playing a match only the day before in the Croatian league and that they will be additionally worn out.
