First two games were a close call. Helios won in Ljubljana, Olimpija won in Domzale. The crucial game is taking place at Stozice today. It is a game that will, in a way, decide both clubs' season. The stakes are as high as they get, we can expect a very fierce and aggressive game as a result. The home team are under more pressure. Helios have done a lot by now. Even if they don't reach the final, they'll be able to say that the season was very good because they got very close to Krka and Olimpija, their financial problems in spite. The Ljubljana-based team would definitely be affected more by the defeat. The injuries are their problem currently - Gaulius and Salin won't be able to help today, Brodnik and Vladovic probably either. Their team will consist of only 7 seniors, and that is a chance for the visiting team. Sagadin has a lot more players to choose from, he's been using all 12 of them, which can be a great advantage in series such as this one, when games take place every two days. Helios were just as good as the opponent in the last two games, with a bit more luck, they could have been in the final by now. The teams are much closer quality-wise than the margin suggest, I think, and I don't expect Olimpija to win by 10 or more points.
