Tomorrow night, Macerata will play host to the Austrian champions of AICH/DOB in the Champions League Main phase. Beaten last week in Novosibirsk, Macerata slipped to second place behind Kazan (9) with just a point above the holders. A win with maximum margin is therefore needed before facing Kazan in the last key game.

“The only possible target is the 3-0 victory – said Stankovic – The is the only result that will do it for us no matter what happened in the Russian derby and before meeting Kazan in the last game”.
