Red Star Hosts Cedevita Olimpija in Adriatic League Playoff Series
Belgrade – Red Star, a Euroleague team with significant ambitions, will begin their Adriatic League playoff series with the advantage of home court in the initial game. The Ljubljana-based Cedevita Olimpija team aims to deliver an unexpected result against the Serbian powerhouse. The series represents a crucial step for Cedevita Olimpija, who, should they advance to the semifinals, would face a stronger opponent from the quarterfinal matchup between Partizan and Bosnia.
Currently, the focus within the Ljubljana camp remains primarily on the immediate challenge presented by Red Star. The two teams have already engaged in two contests during the regional competition’s regular season. Cedevita Olimpija secured a dramatic victory in Stozici, winning 87-86, while Red Star responded with a dominant 97-77 triumph in Belgrade.
Damjan Žibert, head coach of Cedevita Olimpija, is directing the team’s preparations for the series. The team recognizes the historical context of their matchups with the red star team and is strategizing to leverage their previous successes. The upcoming games will be pivotal for both teams as they vie for a place in the Adriatic League semifinals.
