The whole city of Piacenza is ready to experience a special Game 4 of the league final against Trentino. The club had never been so close to the title. Thanks to their away win in game 3, Zlatanov and co have now two possibilities to achieve it. The first one will be at home, in their PalaBanca, where the atmosphere is expected to be electric. The team is enthusiast but also humble and composed. The memory of the semi final game 4, when Macerata tied the series should be able to keep Lorenzetti’s men with their feet on the ground. On the toher side of the net, Trento did not appear as brilliant in the first three games as in previous occasions. Still, it proved it had the players and the ability to turn things around at any time.
