Overview
The all-Italian clash of long-time rivals opens the competition in the Pool B! Defending #CLVolleyM champions Cucine Lube Civitanova and Sir Sicoma Monini Perugia will lock horns for the fourth time in the Europe's prime competition, all previous games ended with victory of Perugia. It is also their first encounter this season, as their game in the national league was postponed due to Covid-19 cases, thus the nail-biting Italian battle is expected in Tours.
Aleksandar Atanasijevic, player of Sir Sicoma Monini Perugia: “It is always difficult to play against Civitanova. It is a great team with great players. We know each other very well and that because we are facing each other since many years. This will absolutely be a significant start for this Champions League and we would like to start this competition with the right foot.”
Ferdinando De Giorgi, head coach of Cucine Lube Civitanova: "Our Pool is very strong, every single match will therefore certainly be decisive for the qualification. Starting from the Italian derby with Perugia, an announced big sporting battle. Both teams are well organized from the technical and tactical sides, as well as very incisive with their serves. Perugia has shown to be in great shape in the last few games they played, so I ask my guys to stay very focused for the whole match, because small episodes will make the difference in case of a balanced game."
