The wild geese see their chance against Ritten

The Buam suffered their first defeat of the season after regular playing time at WSV Vipiteno on Saturday evening. The Italian champions lost 1-4 to the Broncos. Ritten is still clearly in first place in the rankings with a ten point lead, but after the slip-up in Wipptal, Neumarkt wants to take advantage of the moment and inflict the second defeat in a row on the Italian champions. The Wild Geese have lost seven of the last nine games and are the weakest team in the entire league in terms of power play (11,3%). However, the Unterlanders celebrated six of their nine wins this season in front of their home crowd.

The two teams know each other from duels in the Italian championship. The record speaks in favor of Ritten, which has won 13 of the 16 derbies so far (with one draw and two defeats). The “Buam” clearly won the first leg in Klobenstein 6-2.

Ritten will once again have to do without the four regulars Andreas Alber, Markus Spinell, Kevin Fink and Maximilian Ploner. Defender Hannes Oberrauch is expected to be missing from Neumarkt. The game in the Würtarena starts at 19.30:XNUMX p.m.
