The eternal duel is entering a new round

In Klobenstein there is an eternal duel between the leaders of the Master Round, the Rittner Buam, and their runner-up, the HC Pustertal. With 17 points, the Italian champions are four points ahead of their rivals from Bruneck, but the Wolves have also shown themselves to be extremely strong abroad in recent weeks. They scored points in their last eight away games and even won seven of them. In December, however, Holick's troops were defeated 0-3 at Ritten. With a catch rate of 93,7%, HCP goalie Thomas Tragust is number one in the league.

In Qualification Round A, HC Gröden is on track and is currently in second place. On Thursday, the Furies face a manageable task against Bregenzerwald and can continue to attack Cortina's first place.

Neumarkt has its sights set on first place On Thursday there will also be the second leg between Zell am See and Neumarkt in the Qualification Round B. It was only on Tuesday that Salzburg failed to move further away in the table. Although they took the lead, they suffered their first defeat of the second round against the Wildgänsen with a score of 1:2. With one more game, Zell am See is only four points ahead of Neumarkt, which has won five of its last six games.

There is also a quick reunion in Klagenfurt. It was only on Tuesday that the EC-KAC II had to admit defeat 1:4 away in Vipiteno. It was a doubly important victory for the Broncos: the simultaneous defeat of Zell am See meant they came within five points of the league leaders with one game less. All three season duels between these teams went to Vipiteno, with Patrick Mair scoring points in every game. In addition, Francis Verreault-Paul has already scored five goals against Klagenfurt.
