Milan and Grottazzolina open the round, live on Saturday on Rai Sport. Sunday on DAZN Civitanova – Piacenza and Taranto – Perugia. Rai Sport cameras on the Dolomites for Trento – Verona
On the weekend preceding the seasonal debut of the Italian teams in the continental trophies, the SuperLega Credem Banca returns to set the stadiums alight with the 7th first round of the Regular Season. Teams on the field on November 9th and 10th to offer new emotions. Jolts that were not lacking in the last round and led to the solitary summit of Piacenza, followed closely by Perugia and, closely, by Trento. The round opens tomorrow, Saturday (6.00 pm), with the second close home match of Allianz Milano, which after having stored three points with Cisterna in the advance of the 10th matchday hosts Yuasa Battery Grottazzolina live on Rai Sport. The calendar offers the other five races on Sunday. It starts at 4.00 pm with live streaming on DAZN. Fresh from the near miss in Umbria, Cucine Lube Civitanova receives a visit from league leaders Gas Sales Bluenergy Piacenza, ruthless against Milan in the last round. VBTV exclusive at 5.00pm on the Kioene Arena field, where heavy points are played by Sonepar Padova and Mint Vero Volley Monza. Simultaneously, at 6.00 pm, two challenges with an impact on the rankings will be played: Rai Sport cameras at the ilT Quotidiano Arena for the Adige derby between the third and fourth places in the rankings, Itas Trentino and Rana Verona, while VBTV will be exclusive at PalaPanini for the tug of war between Valsa Group Modena, which wants to climb the rankings, and Cisterna Volley, looking for oxygen.
The dangers of Eurosuole Forum and Cucine Lube Civitanova erupt on the almost perfect path of the leaders Gas Sales Bluenergy Piacenza, who left only one point on the road in Padua and in the last round annihilated Milan. The Emilians got the better of 2 times out of 13 matches with the red and whites, but the situation in the standings is different. Andrea Anastasi’s men stored 17 points, Giampaolo Medei’s team scored 10, taking only 1 away. The cooks didn’t leave even crumbs in the house. Two former experts like Robertlandy Simon and Fabio Ricci know the warmth of the Marche support, just as they are aware of the good moment of the former Gas Sales Adis Lagumdzija. Nicola Salsi’s recovery continues. Mattia Bottolo is 9 winning attacks away from 1000 in his career.
On the eve of challenge no. 30 it’s hard to know who will get the praise, but the certainty is that Sonepar Padova and Mint Vero Volley Monza are ready to battle. The result is favorable to the Brianza team with 16 successes against the 13 of the Paduan team, but in the standings the home team has a three point advantage thanks to the seventh place shared with Taranto. Sonepar must make up for the misstep in four sets in Cisterna, Mint comes from the home show of strength in the tie break with Taranto. One ex on each side on the roster: Marko Sedlacek (4 winning attacks in the 500 in Italy) and Taylor Averill. The visitors will be without Osmany Juantorena for at least five weeks due to a shoulder problem. Race no. 100 in Regular Season for Andrea Truocchio and in career for Mattia Orioli. On the opposite front presence n. 100 in Regular Season for Arthur Szwarc.
Fourth face-to-face between Valsa Group Modena and Cisterna Volley. Sixth with 8 points, the Emilians are chasing their third consecutive victory after the success against Monza and the exploit in the tie break in Verona. The Pontine team, beaten by the yellows in the three previous matches, comes from the bitter defeat in Milan in four sets and aims to pass the PalaPanini test unscathed to improve a ranking that is stingy with satisfaction. Two former rivals return to the temple, the setter Michele Baranowicz and the central defender Daniele Mazzone. Potentially prolific evening in terms of personal bests: among the Modena riders Jacopo Massari seeks point no. 1000 in his career, Federico Federici is in match no. 200 in his career, José Miguel Gutierrez needs 4 seals to reach 500 points in Italy, while Paul Buchegger can reach 2000 points in the Regular Season, 22 are missing. Enrico Diamantini, on the other hand, is chasing 500 winning attacks in the Regular Season (- 6).
The Adige derby is renewed with chapter no. 48. With 34 successes in head-to-head matches, Itas Trentino hosts Rana Verona, who have won 13 times. The yellow-blues are third, 2 points from the top, behind Piacenza and Perugia, but they made it clear by violating the PalaSavelli in a comeback not to give up an inch, while the Veneto Club, caught in the tie break by Modena at the Pala Agsm AIM, sails to fourth place and with a full victory he could catch up with the Dolomites at 15. The leitmotif of the match is the crowding of former players, on one side Giulio Magalini and Nicola Pesaresi, on the other Lorenzo Cortesia, Donovan Dzavoronok and Aidan Zingel. Former also on the staff: on one side the scoutman Fabio Dalla Fina, on the opposite side coach Radostin Stoytchev and the second Dario Simoni. Noumory Keita glimpses 1000 points in Italy (-14).
The seventh match between Gioiella Prisma Taranto and Sir Susa Vim Perugia takes place at PalaMazzola. The first 6 crossings did not smile on the home team, who were now called upon to break the taboo. The Ionian hope is to meet the team that failed in the first two sets against Civitanova and not the determined and aggressive sextet who came back from the tie break in an almost compromised match against the red and whites. The fact is that the Block Devils, now at 16, are one point away from the top, but are undefeated. Different epilogue for Gioiella, who came back from two sets against Monza with a notable change of pace, but failed to place the icing on the last corner and find themselves at 7 points in cohabitation with Padova. In the roster, in addition to the former Sir Aimone Alletti, Tim Held, Filippo Lanza and Jan Zimmermann, there is the former Gioiella Davide Candellaro. In the Apulian team Andrea Santangelo is close to 3000 career points (-12), in the Umbrian team Oleh Plotnytskyi is close to 2000 in Italy
