Red-and-Whites Target Back-to-Back Wins as Panthers Eye Major Upset: Where to Watch FMP vs. Crvena Zvezda

"We are opening the season after an extended preparation period, which was much needed given that we have eight new players on the roster. We face the toughest possible opponent in our first competitive outing. We must stick to our strengths and execute them even better than usual. That is essential if we want to stay competitive against Crvena Zvezda, though it is hard to predict how we will fare given that this is our first official game of the season." Saša Nikitović

"We know they are a very tricky opponent, especially on their home court. They have experienced players who will undoubtedly find extra motivation for a game like this. On our end, we will look to get several players into game rhythm and continue improving with every match." Ibon Navarro
