Serbian spiker Uros Kovacevic joined the group following the muscled problem he had last week. The team, which is preparing for the playoffs quarters against Cuneo (series start March 28), will play a friendly on Thursday in Piacenza. This will be the first of four tests that will precede the quarter-final series: the second will be in Macerata on March 16, then home against Macerata on March 20 and finally in Trento on March 23.
