The second adventure of the red and white history in the Volleyball Challenge Cup will open tomorrow, Thursday 14 November (6pm live with DAZN, EuroVolley TV and Radio Arancia), in the Czech Republic. Giampaolo Medei’s men are expected by the hosts of VK Karlovarsko for the first leg of the round of 32 on the Hala Micovych Sportu pitch, a venue in the city of Karlovy Vary. The cooking sextet finds itself in the presence of a team with international experience, already faced and beaten in the past in the Champions League. Still rested due to a rectus femoris problem, Canadian spiker Eric Loeppky will still start with his teammates today. The watchword in the Lube group is to achieve a privateer victory without exhausting energy resources, because the continental cup is a concrete objective, but on Sunday 17 November (6 pm) Valsa Group Modena will present itself at the Eurosuole Forum for the breathtaking challenge of the great exes. A face-to-face meeting that will say a lot about Civitanova’s path in the Regular Season.
In the SuperLega Credem Banca Lube is fourth with 13 points in the pipeline thanks to the home success of the 7th round of the Regular Season scored on Sunday in three sets against Gas Sales Bluenergy Piacenza. Upon returning from the cup away match, captain Fabio Balaso and his teammates will face another Emilian team, the aforementioned Modena, on the eighth day.
Karlovarsko in the Thirty-second
In the first round Karlovarsko eliminated the Croatian club Mok Mursa Osijek with a double 3-0.
