In the S10 category, in which Radović and Bakić compete, 13 table tennis players will compete, divided into four groups.
Both Montenegrin table tennis players won the trophy in Linjan – Bakić in 2024, and Radović a year earlier.
Radović had a great start to the new qualifying cycle and won the tournament in Vladislavovo last week.
In Linjan, he will play in the third group with Mia Wagner from Germany and Poland's Igor Mištal.
Bakić's rivals in Group 2 will be Brazilian Gabriel de Oliveira and Spaniard Jose Manuel Ruiz Reyes.
The first group will feature Frenchman Mateo Bohas, Pole Pawel Wlodyka and Spaniard Marlon Lopez, while group four consists of Austrian Christian Gardos, Japanese Nariaki Kakita, Egyptian Abdelrahman Abdelwahab and Italian Lorenzo Cardua.
Radović will start the tournament with a duel against Vagner at 11 am, while he will meet with Mištal three and a half hours later.
Bakić will start with a duel with Oliveira at 11 am, while at 6:30 pm he will play with Ruiz.
Last year, Radović and Bakić did not perform in Linjan, and the trophy was won by Gardoš, who defeated Mištal in the final match.
The Montenegrin table tennis players in Linjan will be led by Marko Jevtović, who will be on the bench for Radović, and Čedomir Damjanović, who will be alongside Bakić.
