The match between Gas Sales Bluenergy Volley Piacenza and Mint Vero Volley Monza scheduled for Sunday 26 November (8.30 pm live on Rai Sport and Volleyballworld.tv) at the OpiquadArena in Monza closes the seventh first leg of the SuperLega Credem Banca championship.
Challenge number ten is coming against the Brianza team. There are nine precedents between the two teams in Regular Season and Play Off 5th place.
The balance is five successes for Monza and four for Piacenza. Last season the two teams met twice in the Regular Season with two successes for Monza.
The match with the highest score between the two teams dates back to the sixth return day of the 2019-2020 season, Mint Vero Volley Monza won at home 3-1 (25-23, 25-27, 31-29, 25-23 ) and the match recorded 208 points overall. Only once, in the nine previous matches between the two teams, did the match end in a tie break: the sixth first leg of the 2019-2020 season and the comeback win at PalabancaSport was Gas Sales Bluenergy Volley Piacenza (17-25, 25-17, 15-25, 25-22, 15-12).
As regards the “most contested” set, however, we are talking about the 2021-2022 season: on the fifth day of return, the third set went to the red and whites 34-32 who won 3-0 at the end of the match. There were two easier partials: the first dated 2019-2020 season, sixth day of the first leg, Monza prevailed in the third set 25-15 but at the end of the match it was Piacenza who celebrated, winning on the tie break. The second in the last season, the fifth day of the return, Monza prevailed in the fourth set 25-15 and at the end of the match it was the Brianza people who rejoiced.
