After four consecutive away victories between the CEV Champions League and SuperLega Credem Banca, the Italian champions are about to return to their friendly walls.

The match between Cucine Lube Civitanova and Tours VB, respectively first and second in the standings in the group of the top continental competition for Clubs, is scheduled for Wednesday 14 December (at 7 pm) at the Eurosuole Forum. .

Captain Luciano De Cecco and his companions are chasing the fourth consecutive victory in the group. A success against their next rivals would seal the primacy, bringing the cooks very close to direct qualification for the Quarter Finals, but Tours are a difficult team and will leave no stone unturned in the Marches.

Marlon Yant is the top scorer for Cucine Lube Civitanova in the group stage of the 2022/23 Champions League with 55 points. So far, the Cuban spiker has recorded 19 against Sport LISBOA and Benfica, 19 against Tours VB and 17 against Knack ROESELARE.
