Giancarlo Sacco (coach) – “The previous meetings with Cento were both in our favor, but we had the full team and we were healthier. Now I find it hard to think about what kind of match it will be on Sunday, because the chain of injuries and absentees has gotten longer and during the only week in which we didn’t play even on Wednesday, and which precedes the match against the first in the table of the group, we would have liked to prepare in the best possible way. We had to invent some things, as is now our habit, the boys want to get to the end with great pride. I expect that even in this emergency situation, which we have had practically since the beginning, we will be able to find something that will make us fight and play to win the match.”
Notes – Kenneth Viglianisi, Borislav Mladenov and Lorenzo Zangheri will not be available for the match.

Matteo Mecacci (coach) – “We must approach well from the start, our motivations must make the difference, mathematics says that we still need two victories to be calm and there are still 10 points up for grabs”.
Davide Bruttini (player) – “It’s a shame we didn’t close the discussion earlier, now pay maximum attention, we expected a phase full of surprises”.
Notes – Wendell Mitchell is still out due to injury.
