All in one night. Trentino and Piacenza will fight it out for the 64th A1 league title. It’s been a thrilling season and an even more unbelievable playoff run, and now it’s all down to game 5. In the previous encounter, Trentino made up for two rather poor performances that had Piacenza lead 2-1. The Italian champs are now tied and in with a chance to make the double in front of its fans.
On the other side of the net, Lorenzetto’s team have to be daring again. They have to step up after the horrible display of game 4 in their PalaBanca. They have never been this close to the title, they have to go all out.
