The statistics, at least so far, lean a little on Santa Croce’s side. In fact, of the fifteen matches played between the two teams that will face each other this afternoon, nine saw the Tuscan team victorious.
There is, as always, a however: in the 2023-2024 season, Pool Libertas Cantù won both direct matches, with the 1-3 in the province of Pisa then repeated by the 3-2 of Palafrancescucci.
The round of 16 of the Serie A2 men’s volleyball Italian Cup, this afternoon at 6pm, will bring coach Francesco Denora Caporusso’s team to play game 1 in the Santa Croce sull’Arno arena.
«It will be a difficult match – explains the Libertas setter, Matteo Pedron – because we come from a three-week break and, therefore, we will have to be good at finding our game again immediately».
«We know that they are a strong team and we will have to be good at always staying behind», concludes Pedron.
The match, as mentioned, will start at 6pm; for fans who will not be able to follow the team all the way to the province of Pisa, the match will be broadcast in live streaming at the internet address volleyballworld.tv.
