FOLIGNO – Two matches to decide the fate of the Italchimici Foligno (34 points). On paper, Coach Riccardo Provvedi’s men should take full plunder, but to secure salvation two 3-point victories might not even be enough because Anguillara’s direct opponents (36 points) might only need 4. Yes, because the Lazio players who at the moment they are 2 points ahead, as well as having a better set difference, they also won both head-to-head matches.
On Saturday Foligno goes to visit Prato (26 points) who, after last week’s defeat against Anguillara, are already relegated, then next Saturday in the last regular season they will host Livorno who have already been in Serie C for more than a day. Angullara is expected at the home of Pontedera (39 points), who last week won in the tiebreak in Foligno and who need just one point to celebrate mathematical salvation. The Lazio team will finish at home against Camaiore who have already been safe for a while and have no ambitions of making the playoffs.
Santa Croce (38 points) on the other hand could celebrate their salvation on Saturday because they face Livorno away. In short, for Italchimici a lot will depend on the results of Anguillara.
In Prato Coach Provvedi will be able to count on the new setter Andrea Vanini who has already made his debut against Pontedera.
