3-0 winners in Sofia in the Cev Cup 16th of final first leg, Latina will make its home debut. The Italians will need another victory to go through, otherwise the tie will be played on a Golden set to 15 according to the regulations. The Bulgarian began their national league campaign with two tie-break defeats, both away from home, and a win last Saturday. Sofia has players with experience, such as Kiosev who played in Italy with Mantova between the B2 and A2, Peter Kirchev who played in Turkey and the last two years in Austria, while Barutov played in Turkey, France and Greece.
“This will be an important game, the first European Game here in Latina – said Michel Guemart – We have won in Bulgaria and have to do much of the same to go through. In Sofia, there was a bit of emotions in the air for our debut game but once we were on court, the tension disappeared”.
