Perugia won the match partially 25-23, 18-25, 25-23, 25-22.

The Austrian Alexander Berger was the most efficient player in Perugia with 14 points, successfully replacing injured American outside hitter Aaron Russell in the lineup. The Serbian Marko Podraščanin made 6 kill blocks. His compatriot Uroš Kovačević topped Trentino with 16 points. The Slovenian Jan Kozamernik added 4 kill blocks.

The playoff semifinals are played in the best-of-five format.
