The 12th day of the return leg, or rather the penultimate of the Regular Season in Serie A2 Credem Banca, can decree definitive verdicts both for the Play Off grid and in the hot zones, with Palmi already mathematically relegated and Cantù (28 points), Macerata (25) and Reggio Emilia (22) jostling to remain in the category. The round is concentrated on Sunday 9 March and the matches, all live on VBTV, are spread over five time slots. It starts at 16:00 with three matches. Consar Ravenna is trying to fill the 2 points that separate it from second place at home against Cosedil Acicastello, who with a 3-point victory would secure participation in the Play Off by launching the assault on sixth place, which is one point away. Campi Reali Cantù is 1 point away from safety, but Evolution Green Aversa arrives at PalaFrancescucci, which must defend fourth place and capitalize on the last two rounds for a possible podium finish. OmiFer Palmi has already said goodbye to the category, but does not want to give Conad Reggio Emilia any discounts, second to last and forced to a pirate blitz to hope for safety. On the field at 17.00 MA Acqua S.Bernardo Cuneo and Abba Pineto. The Piedmontese are fifth but still in the running to climb the rankings and, at the same time, threatened by the pursuers, the Abruzzese are -4 from seventh place, the last available for the Play Offs, and must give their all in the last two rounds. At 17.30 the face to face between Emma Villas Siena and Smartsystem Essence Hotels Fano is scheduled.

PLAY OFF SERIE A2 CREDEM BANCA – THE FORMULA
The top seven teams at the end of the Credem Banca Serie A2 Regular Season take part in the Play Offs: the first-placed team goes directly to the Semi-Finals, while the teams ranked from 2nd to 7th place play the Quarter Finals. All the Play Off series are the best of three matches. The teams ranked 13th and 14th at the end of the Regular Season are relegated. There will be no Play Outs. The Serie A2 Credem Banca Play Off Quarter Finals series has a double value: the winning teams, in addition to qualifying for the Play Off Semi-Finals, automatically access (together with the first-placed team of the Regular Season) also the Del Monte® Coppa Italia Serie A2 Quarter Finals. The teams defeated in the Play Off Quarters instead, start in the Coppa Italia from the Round of 16, together with the teams from 8th to 12th place. The pairing between the 4 winners of the Round of 16 and the 4 teams already qualified for the Quarters will be drawn.
The dates:
Quarter Finals: March 23 and 30, 2025 and April 2, 2025
Semifinals: April 6, 13 and 16, 2025
Final: April 20, 24, 27, 2025
