Serie A: Ritten wants to secure relegation

(4) Aquile FVG Pontebba – (5) HC Alleghe Tegola Canadese Four games, two of which went into extra time, were sometimes not enough to determine the semi-finalist between Pontebba and Alleghe. Nicola Fontanive equalized the series in game four with his goal in the 73.37 minute. Now the showdown between the two teams starts again in the Vuerich Stadium in Pontebba. Pontebba has always won at home in regular time and played an extremely good game. DeVergilio's loss was recently compensated for by his quick and efficient style of play. The team from Friuli managed to catch up in the second, third and fourth games. Now the landmark fifth game in Pontebba is on the program. Sometimes without an away win, Alleghe has to win at least once on foreign ice to secure a place in the semi-finals. Coach McKenna's hopes rest primarily on goalkeeper Dennis, who has had a thrilling duel with his counterpart Petizian so far. Regarding the absences: In addition to the injured Tartaglione and Rezzadore, Pontebba will again be missing the suspended DeVergilio and a surplus transfer card player. For the Bellunese, only Alberto Fontanive has to pass.

(3) Hafro SG Cortina - (6) HC Valpellice Bodino Engineering With last Saturday's 2-0 win, Valpellice was able to extend the series against Cortina by at least one game. However, the Piedmontese still have their backs to the wall. Coach Stefan Mair's team has three more match points available at the current score of 3:1. But they shouldn't rest on their laurels after the away defeat in Torre Pellice. Things will be tough again in the fifth game, after the previous encounters were characterized by physical toughness and fast play. Cortina is primarily dependent on its top scorers Hennigar and Johannson, while goalkeeper Levasseur will be reliable as usual. Valpe, on the other hand, has to put everything on one card to stay in the game. The red-whites already showed good approaches on Saturday: with a lot of concentration and a very strong strike line Sirianni-Desmet-Frigo, they showed their opponents their limits. After his shutout in the most recent semi-final duel, goalie Valiquette also wants to prove himself in the Olympic Stadium in Cortina. As far as the team compositions are concerned, there should be no changes. Regan (Valpellice), as well as Zanatta and Isherwood (Cortina) will also be missing.

(9) Ritten Sport Renault Trucks – (10) WSV Vipiteno Weihenstephan With the away coup in the Weihenstephan Arena, the “Rittner Buam” secured the preliminary decision. Now they have three games available to finally close the bag and secure relegation. Both teams had a strong phase on Saturday: First Vipiteno made it 1-0, then Ritten hit back and hit the mark three times. The guests then skillfully played their two-goal lead over time. The decisive factor was the performance of Karol Krizan, who returned to the Rittner goal. Now the team from the high plateau is facing the final and decisive step. The Broncos, on the other hand, are under a lot of pressure - they seemed particularly mentally weak recently. After Gander's 1-0 lead, coach Greg Holst's protégés carelessly gave the game away. Now only one thing counts: winning! In order to implement this, Sterzing must return to old virtues and go on the ice with a lot of commitment. The guests will miss the injured Lee, while Ritten will have to make do without the suspended Fauster. There is still a question mark behind Bregenzer's deployment.
