The match with all capital letters. Coming off two consecutive wins at the tie-break, the EnergyTime Spike Devils Campobasso sextet arrives at the halfway point of the playouts, going to face Napoli for the fifth day of the salvation pool, currently last in the standings with the rossoblù who have a three-point margin over the Partenopei.

«We have a crossroads of absolute importance ahead of us. Achieving a victory would be fundamental to keep us in line for salvation», explains the Campobasso coach Giuseppe Bua on the eve of the match.

In fact, finding a three-point exploit – for the rossoblù – would mean projecting themselves into second place, a placement that, if confirmed, next May 4, would be synonymous with salvation.

«Without a doubt, it will also be a key match for them to keep their hopes of salvation alive. For our part, we come to this match fresh from two good performances. From a mental and motivational point of view, the group is in good condition, as well as physically. We will have to be very present because in the playouts you have to be careful in every circumstance because the postseason represents a tournament in itself and, in the specific case of our opponents, the unexpected stop in Brugherio ended up conditioning their path. We are aware that we will have to give our all for a goal, which a month ago probably no one believed in».
