Sir Safety Perugia – Itas Diatec Trentino
PAST ENCOUNTERS: None
Slobodan Kovac (coach Sir Safety Perugia): “We’re up against Trento, the world champions. We’ve been doing well of late with three victories in a row and a thrilling derby last Sunday. It’s obvious it will be a tough one, I’m not going to start naming the qualities of a team that has no weaknesses and many stars in its roster. Many of my boys admired them on TV and they will be happy to play against them. We’re playing home, we want to do well for our fans and do the best we can”.
Matteo Burgsthaler (Itas Diatec Trentino): “All our thoughts are focused on Wednesday night’s game in Perugia. We want three more points to get up the table. For a team like ours we don’t really enjoy being in mid-table. We need a win, which will come only if we can prove we’re stronger technically and physically as we’re supposed to”.
