Fight for second place in Bruneck

After the long international break, the domestic Serie A players are under stress. For HC Pustertal, however, the start to the second phase of the season didn't go quite as planned. In the away game against Fassa they had to go into extra time, only then could the 4-3 win be wrapped up in dry cloths. It's not just that the Wolves' gap to the top has increased by another point. Looking backwards must also increasingly be viewed with a critical eye: Since Vipiteno did its homework brilliantly against Valpellice, the lead for the HCP is now only three points - second place is in danger. The big top game between the HCP and the Broncos Vipiteno will take place in the Rienz Stadium on Saturday. A look at the duels so far this season shows that this encounter is not only interesting because of the delicate table situation: both times no winner could be determined after the regular 60 minutes, so the Pusterers celebrated a 5-4 victory in their home game after extra time, while Vipiteno had the better end of the penalty shootout in front of their own audience (4:3).

Regional derby for Ritten The South Tyrolean derby in Bruneck will attract attention starting at 19.30 p.m. The match day will be opened by Ritten beforehand. The Buam are asking Fassa to dance in their home Ritten Arena – and want to achieve their ninth win in a row. Interesting side note: This outstanding series began with a duel against the Falcons.

Difficult away match for Gherdeina In the end, three points only became one: until the 44th minute, HC Gherdeina was ahead 4-1 against Cortina on Thursday, but then the inexplicable drop in performance followed and they ultimately had to admit defeat in the penalty shootout. So the “Furie” have taken over the red lantern – improvement doesn’t seem to be in sight any time soon. On Saturday the people of Val Gardena will be visiting Valpellice, who are looking to make amends after the painful defeat against Vipiteno.
