The match between Gas Sales Bluenergy Volley Piacenza and Mint Vero Volley Monza scheduled for Saturday 10 February (5.30 pm live on Volleyballworld.tv, Radio Sound and Sportpiacenza.it) at PalabancaSport opens the seventh return day of the SuperLega Credem Banca championship.
Challenge number eleven is coming against the Brianza team. There are ten precedents between the two teams in Regular Season and Play Off 5th place.
The balance is six successes for Monza and four for Piacenza. The first leg ended in a tie break with Monza coming from behind to win.
The match with the highest score between the two teams dates back to the first leg of this season: seventh day of the first leg, Mint Vero Volley Monza won at home 3-2 (22-25, 25-21, 19-25, 25-20, 15-12) and the match recorded 209 points overall.
Only twice, in the ten previous matches between the two teams, has the match ended in a tie break: the sixth first leg of the 2019-2020 season and the comeback win at PalabancaSport was Gas Sales Bluenergy Volley Piacenza (17-25, 25-17, 15-25, 25-22, 15-12) and the first leg this season.
As regards the “most contested” set, however, we are talking about the 2021-2022 season: on the fifth day of return, the third set went to the red and whites 34-32 who won 3-0 at the end of the match. There were two easier partials: the first dated 2019-2020 season, sixth day of the first leg, Monza prevailed in the third set 25-15 but at the end of the match it was Piacenza who celebrated, winning on the tie break. The second in the last season, the fifth day of the return, Monza prevailed in the fourth set 25-15 and at the end of the match it was the Brianza people who rejoiced.
