🔻 Meralco vs Blackwater PBA Li.ve Game Today 2025 HD (0:0)

 The Blackwater Bossing look to exploit the absence of Cliff Hodge as they tangle with defending champion Meralco Bolts in the PBA Philippine Cup. Meralco continues its search for answers in what has been a tumultuous conference for the Bolts in the PBA Philippine Cup.

The match begins at 5 p.m. at the Ynares Center in Antipolo.

Currently at 3-5, the Bolts are coming off back-to-back defeats, the latest a 92-117 rout at the hands of the then unbeaten Magnolia Hotshots on May 14.

After a long break and back-to-back losses, the Blackwater Bossing look to reignite their Philippine Cup campaign as they take on the Meralco Bolts in the PBA Season 49 Philippine Cup on Wednesday, May 21. 

The match starts at 5 p.m. at the Ynares Center in Antipolo.

Blackwater, currently 1-4, hasn’t seen action since May 7, when it absorbed a 120-106 loss to Rain or Shine. 

Despite the defeat, the Bossing showed flashes of offensive brilliance but failed to match the Elasto Painters’ firepower and defensive intensity.

The team now gets a golden opportunity to get back on track against a shorthanded Meralco squad (3-5) reeling from two straight losses and missing key forward Cliff Hodge, who is serving a one-game suspension for a hard foul on Magnolia’s Zavier Lucero.

With Hodge sidelined, Blackwater should look to exploit the interior gaps and push the tempo against a Bolts team trying to regain stability.

Desperate to get back on track, Meralco Bolts aim to snap their losing streak as they square off with the struggling Blackwater Bossing in the PBA Season 49 Philippine Cup on Wednesday, May 21.

Meralco will be without key veteran Cliff Hodge, who will serve a one-game suspension after his flagrant foul on Magnolia's Zavier Lucero—a significant blow to the Bolts' interior presence and defensive anchor.

On the other side, Blackwater (1-4) is reeling from two straight defeats and continues to search for rhythm after a promising start to the conference.

With both squads hungry for a much-needed win, expect Meralco to dig deep as it tries to stay in the playoff race while keeping Blackwater at bay.
