SI vs MAT Dream11: This could be the last game in the series, or there could be life left still in the series, if San Isidro wins the fourth match, for Matagalpa won the third game to take the 2-1 lead in the best-of-the-five series in the finals, and two teams will once against face each other in the Nicaragua Basketball League 2020 season on Thursday morning (IST).

Isidro are 1-2 behind in the series, but they could feel hard done by. They haven’t been that bad to face the deficit, actually. In fact, neither of the two teams deserve to be behind in this series, such has been the level of both teams, too close, too intense, and too many topsy-turvy moments, with the balance of the game, and series as well, continue to shift towards either San Isidro or Matagalpa.
That said, after the overtime 69-75 defeat in the third game, Isidro know this game could be the season for them if they don’t succeed in this match. After the consistency they showed through the regular season, where they were the best team, losing just once in 19 matches, a title glory is the only thing that could fully suffice their dominance. But not all endings are happy, as they say.
For Matagalpa, this is a dream position. A 2-1 lead in the series, and the title-clinching game awaiting them, they don’t need to change even a thing from the last game. After the last win, Matagalpa look more clutch, to be true.

Matagalpa have won two games where they could have fluffed their lines. Those wins show that they have players who can handle the pressure well, while it feels slightly different for Isidro, as they had moments in both those defeats where the result could have been on the positive side for them. But Isidro are still a very good team and in their won backyard, backing them feels a good call.
