Piacenza - Modena

Italy - SuperLega, Playoff, Quarterfinal

On March 22, Piacenza will host Coach Giani's Modena team, which won the last tie-break match at home against a fierce Gas Sales team that could not prevail at Pala Panini, a fortress for the Modena team as always. In my opinion, things will change in this match because if Coach Botti's players managed to win 2 sets in a difficult field like Modena's, Piacenza becomes a tougher opponent at home and that's why I see them as the favorites. Moreover, Modena's playing style changes radically when playing away, and as a result, I think Brizard and his teammates will have the upper hand in this second playoff game. Statistically, the two teams had very similar values in the last match, with a reception difference in favor of Modena. Although I see Piacenza as slight favorites, I am sure we will witness a hard-fought match, and I don't think Modena will give up this second match so easily, as these are the championship playoffs after all!
