PAST ENCOUNTERS: 7 (All Trento)
Radostin Stoytchev (Itas Diatec Trentino): “After our triumph in Bolzano, we’re back in the gym to prepare the playoffs which will start in a week. We’ll face two games without any particular meaning before the quarter-finals but we want to do well. We’ll probably line up a different team than usual, from which I am expecting a good performance. We have to focus immediately on this phase of the season”.
Graydon Ainsworth (Yoga Forlì): “Our season will be over in four days. With two tough games. Their triumph in the weekend will make it even more difficult. We can only try to play our game, putting in practice all the good things done in the second half of championship. Shame that in the first part of the season we did not find the ideal mix, which made us win some points from December”.
