Can Pustertal and Bozen use the match point on Saturday?

(8) Supermercati Migross Asiago - (1) Wolves Fiat Professional Pustertal After the 7-0 win that Asiago took against Pustertal in the third game, the champions have their backs against the wall and have the very last chance in the Odegar Stadium to perhaps turn things around in the series. To do this, the Parco team has to improve enormously, because so far the team has not shown anything close to what it can do. The players - including goalkeeper Lerg, who was replaced after 20.15:180 minutes in the third game - seem drained and tired. Pustertal, on the other hand, will try to keep concentration high in order to save energy for the next tasks in this play-off with the fourth win. In any case, there isn't much to complain about in the XNUMX minutes played so far in the Wolves' knockout round. At Asiago, like last time, the surplus foreigners are sent to the stands, while Kelly and Oberrauch are missing from Pusteria.

(5) HC Alleghe Tegola Canadese - (4) Aquile FVG Pontebba Three games, three battles: that's roughly how you can summarize the previous encounters between Alleghe and Pontebba. Pontebba managed a brilliant comeback in the third game, which put the Eagles ahead 2-1 in the series. Now it's off to the fourth match at DeToni Stadium in Alleghe and you can assume that the McKenna team will do everything they can to equalize the series. To do this, the home team needs an Adam Henrich or Vince Rocco in top form, which hasn't necessarily been the case recently as there were no goals from the two top-class players. As for the local players, the effort was certainly commendable. Pontebba, on the other hand, has shown again and again that it never gives up and that coach Pokel has to be a motivation guru who can always encourage his players to achieve top performance - especially when you would no longer expect it. There is no other way to explain the fact that this numerically small squad can still keep up. However, it doesn't really come in handy that Iannone and DeVergilio were suspended due to their hard work and will be missing on Saturday. The guests will also have to provide Tartaglione, while Alleghe will have to do without Alberto Fontanive and DaTos.

(6) HC Valpellice Bodino Engineering - (3) Hafro SG Cortina Valpellice and Cortina are leading a very spectacular quarter-final series, offering spectators attractive games with lots of scoring opportunities and physical contact. In the end, however, Cortina has always laughed, leading 3-0 and only needing one win to move into the semi-finals. For Ron Ivany's team, who won nine out of ten games in the relegation round, it's now all or nothing. Goalkeeper Valiquette was in great form, but the people in front of him were not able to use their full potential. Dickenson-Nikiforuk didn't score a single goal and apart from the first line with Sirianni-Desmet-Frigo only three goals were scored. That's not enough to put cup winners Cortina in danger. With the Mair troupe, everything runs almost like clockwork. Hennigar is proving to be a true leader and Levasseur in goal is characterized by consistency and high concentration. So one more win and Cortina can crown this already successful season with a place in the semi-finals. Regan and Luca Zanatta and Isherwood will be missing.

(7) Fassa Ferrarini - (2) HC Bozen The third game between the Ladins and the Talferstädters also confirmed that the Füchse are a class better than Fassa. The people of Trentino are trying hard, but the absences in Fassa's ranks are simply too serious. With their backs against the wall, they now want to avert their fourth defeat in a row and at least prolong this unequal duel a little longer. Coach Frycer actually only has two lines at his disposal. The coach has great hope for goalie Doyle, who may be able to contribute to the miracle with a shutout. But stopping Bolzano's first line seems impossible, as the Giliati-Sharp-Knackstedt trio scored all four goals for the White-Reds in the third game. The very solid defense with the brilliant Zaba, who celebrated his second shutout in a row, did the rest. Fassa may be able to use Martin Castlunger, while the suspended Iori, as well as Margoni, Locatin and Chvatal, will be missing. Meyers and Edwardson are still out of action near Bolzano.

(10) WSV Vipiteno Weihenstephan - (9) Ritten Sport Renault Trucks With 3:2 for Vipiteno after 9.36:1 minutes of extra time, Ryan Ginand shortened the series between the Broncos and Ritten to 2:3. Now the Wipptalers have a great chance to equalize in front of their own audience. Who would have believed that in the second match, when the Broncos were 0-2 down with four minutes to go? The Hicks squad knows that they can't afford to make any mistakes on Saturday in the Weihenstephan Arena. The Rittners are also under pressure and cannot afford any slip-ups if they want to pull away in the series again. The Holst team was 0-XNUMX behind in the third match and showed morale as the Rittner Buam managed to equalize. Nevertheless, further improvement is needed if the specters of relegation are to be driven away. Bregenzer is expected to return to the team after recovering from the flu, while Fauster will continue to be absent. The Broncos are fully at the start.
