Di Pinto’s team want the victory in the last round at home against Santa Croce to remain second and secure a 1-0 advantage in all the playoffs series it will take part in. This will be Elia’s 200th appearance in the Serie A.

“Santa Croce is a tough opponent – said Di Pinto – They play good volleyball, they have a very effective serve so we know we’ll need our best to overcome them”.
