Cucine Lube Civitanova is undergoing a double training session ahead of their away match in Emilia on Sunday, November 16th (6:00 PM) at the PalaBancaSport against Gas Sales Bluenergy Piacenza for the 5th matchday of the SuperLega Credem Banca Regular Season.
This is the 16th match between the two teams. The previous meetings favor the team from the Marche region, which has prevailed in 13 of 15 matches, winning 41 sets and losing 17 to its rivals. The Cucine Lube team scored 1,352 points compared to the 1,235 scored by the team from Emilia. A significant achievement is the team’s nine wins in as many matches played away from the Marche region against Gas Sales, while at home Lube has beaten Piacenza four times in six games.
Last season, the two teams met twice, both in the regular season. Giampaolo Medei’s men prevailed on both occasions by a wide margin. The seventh-round first-leg match in Civitanova was a close one, with the teams well-controlled, but the opponents’ return to the field resulted in a thrilling third set.
