Tuesday of intense activity for the red and whites. After a day of relaxation to refuel at the peak of the tour de force which brought to the board the eighth Del Monte® Coppa Italia SuperLega in the F4 of Bologna, the arrival at the European Semi-final and the show of strength in the championship in Piacenza, enriching a magical period made up of nine consecutive successes between the national cup (three), Challenge Cup (two) and Regular Season (four), the Cucine Lube Civitanova will return to the gym this afternoon, February 4th. A double session of weights and technique is scheduled. Giampaolo Medei’s group, still undefeated in the new calendar year, is preparing to return to Emilia for a challenge with a special flavour, the “classic” against the Valsa Group Modena at the PalaPanini, a match scheduled for Sunday 9 February, at 6pm, and valid for the 8th return day of the regular season.
The Marche team can use a full week to prepare for the blitz on a difficult pitch with the Predators in tow. Captain Fabio Balaso and his teammates consolidated their third position in the standings at 39 points, with 17 matches played and the away to Padua to make up for (on the pitch at the Kioene Arena with Sonepar on Thursday 20 February, at 8.30pm, in the match valid for the 1st of return). The new winners of the Italian Cup are six points behind the leadership of Sir Susa Vim Perugia, who have played 18 matches. However, they are only four points behind Itas Trentino, who have played 17 matches in the championship as Civitanova.
