Novara recovered well from losing the recent Italian Super Cup to Imoco Volley Conegliano and trampled over Khimik, the first-ever Ukrainian team in the pool stage of the Champions League, in Pool C. The difference between these two sides was enormous in favor of titleholders: 3-0 (25-17, 25-10. 25-7).

Fully recovered Serbian opposite hitter Jovana Brakočević Canzian put down 20 points for the winning side, while American Micha Hancock served 5 aces.
