The CEV Cup to forget the misstep in the SuperLega Credem Banca: this is what Trentino Itas hopes for in view of the first leg of the Round of 16 of the second most important European competition, which will see the team coached by Fabio Soli challenge Sport in Portugal Lisbon and Benfica. After the double victory against the Romanian team Arcadia Galati, the Dolomite team has thus earned the possibility of reaching the round of 16: a victory would first of all allow us to look with greater optimism at the return match, set for December 19th at PalaPirastu of Cagliari, but above all it would guarantee Michieletto and his companions an extra stimulus in facing the upcoming Club World Cup, which will see Trento involved in Brazil next week (Sbertoli and his companions will not in fact they will take to the field in the SuperLega over the weekend: the match against Padova has already been anticipated). The first leg match against Benfica is scheduled for tomorrow, at 8.00 pm local time: it is an absolute first time in Portugal for Trentino Itas, who will be on stage at the Sports Hall Benfica Lisboa. Thirteen players brought by Fabio Soli, with Jan Kozamernik the only one unavailable.
