Oberliga: An Easter weekend with numerous derby delicacies

Last chance for St. Pauls

There are two local neighborhood duels on the program on Holy Saturday. In the Passeier Valley, St. Martin and St. Pauls face each other from 16 p.m. The home team celebrated an important away win against Brixen last Sunday and would like to follow up with a win against the blue-whites this weekend. The Paulsners also have three points in their sights in order to postpone the mathematical certainty of relegation for at least another week. With five rounds to go, the Überetscher are in second-to-last place in the table and are ten points behind fourth-from-last Calciochiese. Should Klotzner's troops not win on Saturday and Calciochiese retain the upper hand against Tramin (this game will also be played on Saturday at 16 p.m.), the fate of St. Pauls would be mathematically sealed, which means they will be back in the top regional league after a year would have to go back to the national league.

Ahrntal cannot afford to make a misstep

The second derby, however, will kick off at 18 p.m. in Ahrntal. The “Teldra” and Virtus Don Bosco face each other. Things are not going well for both teams at the moment: the home side are in the middle of a relegation battle after the defeat against Fersina last weekend, while the White-Greens fell well short of expectations in the second half of the season with five defeats in the last seven games.

The same applies to Salurn: Losing is forbidden! Important points are also at stake in the derby between Eppan and Salurn, which is scheduled for Easter Monday. After the defeat in the direct duel against Calciochiese, things have become tight for the Oberliga Dino from the lower country in terms of staying in the league. Coach Pellegrini's boys still have the chance to save themselves, but from now on they can't afford any more missteps, starting with Monday's match against the Nanni team. For their part, the Eppan team also want to collect the full number of points so that they can tackle the final phase of the championship without any worries.

Can Brixen find its way out of the crisis? SSV Brixen, on the other hand, wants to get back on the road to success after two defeats in a row on Easter Monday. Not an easy task, because the Brixen youth center hosts no less a team than fourth-placed Alense.

Bozen FC wants to trip up the leaders Class leader St. Georgen, however, will be a guest at Bozner FC on Monday. Coach Patrizio Morini's team is eager to make amends after the 1-4 defeat against pursuers Levico, which has reopened the fight for the Oberliga championship title, but should be wary of Jack Degasperi and Co. The Toccoli squad have won five of the last six championship games and will do everything in their power to trip up the leaders and thus continue their high flight.
