Pustertal against Ritten - local derby with a special excitement factor

Master round Fiat Professional Wolves – Ritten Sport Renault Trucks The clash between the dethroned leaders from Bruneck and their local rivals Ritten promises pure excitement, who could even push the HCP into third place with a win. The Wolves had to sit out the start of the Master Round and now want to strike back. Pustertal won the last meeting between the two South Tyrolean teams 22-5 on December 2nd. However, Ritten boosted self-confidence with a win against Alleghe after the cup semi-final exit on Thursday. Kaltern goalie Martino Valle Da Rin will take on the role of backup for the “Buam”, Ryan Ramsay, Alex Frei and Alexander Eisath are still missing. At the HCP, Jean Sebastien Aubin returns between the posts, but Ben Guitè (one week break), Patrick Bona and Benno Obermair have to pass.

Alleghe Tegola Canadese – HC Bozen Alleghe urgently needs three points in the home game against HC Bozen in order not to completely lose touch with the first three places in the table, after all the point gap to Ritten is currently five points. However, this task is likely to be an extremely difficult one, because the HCB impressively demonstrated in their clear win against Valpellice that the exertions of the Continental Cup weekend have left no trace. Hungarian newcomer Balazs Ladanyi will make his debut for the reigning champions. Günther Hell will replace the departed Thomas Duba in goal, while Marco Insam and Christian Walcher will remain at home due to injuries. Alleghe coach Tom Pokel is spoiled for choice and will send either Gino Guyer or Luka Tosic to the stands.

Relegation Round Migross Supermercati Asiago – Hafro Cortina Asiago will play its first match in the Relegation Round on Saturday at the Odegar Stadium. The opponents awaiting the Vicentines, who are in first place with 28 points, are the skid cracks from Cortina. The Ampezzanians are in third place, five points behind, and want to get closer to qualifying for the playoffs by winning another point in the Veneto derby. Asiago can rely on Michele Strazzabosco again for the upcoming home game, while Cortina will miss Derek Edwardson.

Val di Fassa Ferrarini – Milano Rossoblu

Only a win will really help Fassa on Saturday. The Ladins want to keep at least a glimmer of hope alive for participation in the playoffs and not prematurely succumb to the fate of the relegation round. The situation in Milan is completely different, where the focus has already been turned to the final championship phase. In order to secure the best possible starting position for the knockout phase, the Lombards also urgently need points. Coach Adolf Insam has to make do in Canazei without Diego Iori and the latest newcomer Angelo Esposito, but Tommaso Migliore could return.
