Ahead of one point in the standings over the hosts and with a game to recover, captain Fabio Balaso and his teammates are chasing their ninth consecutive victory in all competitions, the fourth in a row in the league. The euphoria of winning the Italian Cup and qualifying for the Challenge Cup Semi-finals must be put aside because the quality of the Piacenza squad does not allow for distractions. This will be the first of two trips to Emilia. In the 8th round of the second leg, Lube will play in Modena against Valsa Group.

With the fundamental victory achieved at home against Perugia, Lube reached 36 points, overtaking Piacenza in third place, which fell at the tie break in Milan after leading the match with a two-set lead, and now one point behind against of the Cucineri, who also played one less match.
