Macerata needs a point against the Turkish team of Fenerbahce to qualify for the Champions League Playoffs 12. There are two games left and Giuliani are top of the group but it would be better to obtain the useful point now and take revenge on the loss conceded in the first meeting between the two teams.

“This is undeniably a crucial game for us in Europe – said spiker Savani – We are close to the qualification but we have a lot of work still to get there. I think it is important to get it now. It’s true that we only need a point, two sets, but we have to aim for the win because settling is not part of our DNA”.
