Penultimate day of the Play Off Group 5th Place Credem Banca is upon us. The 4th round is scheduled for tomorrow, Wednesday 23 April, with three delicate matches. At 20:00 the dances begin with the marquee match between Rana Verona and Valsa Group Modena. The Scaligeri want to capitalize on the home field advantage to catch up with the top of the class with a direct clash, already mathematically qualified for the Semifinals. Two play-offs between teams with 3 points simultaneously at 20:30. Yuasa Battery Grottazzolina knows it can hold its own against anyone at home and to aim for the direct clashes it launches the challenge to Allianz Milano, fresh from the first victory in the Group just like the Marche team and intent on raising the level. A great desire for redemption on Pontine soil between the home team Cisterna Volley and Sonepar Padova who want full stakes to arrive stronger at the sprint.
The two days preceding Easter gave important indications, shortening the standings and opening new scenarios. Modena’s home victory in four sets with Cisterna launched the Emilians to the sole lead at 9 points, while Cisterna is at 3 points in the standings. The situation was leveled by the first victories of the two teams still dry. In the Friday advance, Milan defeated Padua in three sets, tying the Paduans in the standings at 3 points, together with Cisterna and Grottazzolina, which on Saturday won its first match of the Group by beating Verona 3-1, which currently occupies second place at -3 from Modena.
