Semifinal preview, game 1: BC Rilski Sportist hosting KB Peja

Tonight at 18.30 hrs local time BC Rilski Sportist is hosting KB Peja in a first semifinal game in EUROHOLD Balkan League. The match will be broadcast LIVE on BNT World, RTV 21 and Sportmedia.tv and will give some answer regarding the overall outcome.

Rilski Sportist will rely on its experienced core of Bozov, Rakocevic and Gugino in order to secure a good result before the second match. On the other hand the team also have the younger Taylor, Norfleet and Iliev who can provide the spark and can run and make threes. Bozov is the leader and the top scorer of the team with 16.1 points per game and he is the one that has to lead once again his teammates. Rilski had some injury problems with Rakocevic and Taylor but in such a game there are no excuses.

Peja also had some injury problems last week but the team is coming here to win. Drilon Hajrizi, Alban Veseli and Jozo Brkic are with the team longer and have already met Rilski earlier in the season. Nic Wise and Janou Rubin came later but are already doing well and overall the team is coming with a good confidence having won the Kosovo Cup few weeks ago.

Rilski has beaten Peja twice this season but that won′t count for nothing come game time. Both teams are well aware what′s at stake now and for sure will play hard, give their best and provide us with interesting minutes.
