Serbian vice champion RK Paritizan Beograd is looking for a successful weekend after two defeats at the beginning of the SEHA GAZPROM South Stream League. Team from the Serbian capital were underdogs in matches against HC Vojvodina (23:25) and HC Vardar (26:33), but in the match of Round 3 on Saturday at "Banjica" hall" (18 hrs) Montenegrin champion Lovćen will be the rival possible to beat.

 ’’I believe that time has come to win first points in this strong competition and to use full potential of our squad. It’s time to get a prize for all the efforts which were put into these young players in order to become better and better every next day’’, said the youngest coach in the RK Partizan, but also in EHF’s Champions League history, Aleksandar Brković and added: ’’Lovćen is good and solid team. They showed that in first two matches in SEHA league, but I believe that we can overplay them and beat in front of our fans’’, concluded Brković.

Young right back Nikola Potić (21) is aware that HC Partizan has the youngest squad in the club’s history and agrees that experience of playing with strong teams in SEHA league is more important than the result: ’’Team average age is about 21, so we can’t think about some high position in the League, but about the experience all these young guys will gain by playing it. Lovćen is a team against whom we can fight for the win. They aren’t on level like Vardar, Zagreb or Metalurg. That is our chance. We analysed them and if we play on our maximum we can’t count on points in Banjica’’, concluded Potić.

Montenegrin champion HC Lovćen suffered defeat at the EHF Cup Round 1 in Israel, where team coached by Kasim Kamenica lost both matches against Maccabi Tel Aviv (37:35 and 30:29). The clash in Belgrade will be the chance to break a series of three defeats in a row in the last ten days (HC Metalurg 24:29 - SEHA league Round 2).

One of the most experienced coach in the league, Kasim Kamenica, thinks that his team has a chance to win at "Banjica" hall: ’’We are aware that Partizan has young players and that maybe this is our chance, but on the other hand we are tired because of the tough game we played in Tel Aviv. They are young, we are tired, so we are equal’’, concluded Kamenica.
