Tomorrow, Macerata will play host to Cuneo in the Italian derby of the Champions League playoffs 6. At stake a place in the Final Four to be played in Oomsk.

“We are prepared for this game – said spiker Parodi – We can’t wait to play. We earned the right to be there thanks to two excellent performances against Reszow, and now we’re extremely motivated ahead of the game against Cuneo. We’ll have the support of our fans but Cuneo is a strong team that is playing well right now. They lost last week against Piacenza but it’s possible that their mind was already set on this coming European fixture because it is an extremely important one for both clubs”.

The two clubs had met in the competition last year, Macerata had gone through to the quarters thanks to the golden set.
