Biosì Indexa Sora – Exprivia Molfetta
PREVIOUS MATCHES: 5 (2 successi Sora, 3 successi Molfetta)
Francesco De Marchi (Biosì Indexa Sora): “Molfetta is a good team, Giulio Sabbi is having a great season, for the team and for his stats. He’s their go to guy. We will need to contain him, he can be explosive in attack and in the serve.
We are working in the right way in the gym, will be a tough game but we can be a good opponent for them. We have Mattei back in the roster and we are working hard in practice. The week off has been useful for us to work in the gym, to focus on the technical aspects of our game, and to recover the injuries. We will be prepared for the rest of the championship”.
