Matej Mihajlović and Jan Pokeršnik made 17 points apiece for ACH Volley in their straight-set win over Champions League debutants Mladost, partially 25-19, 25-17, 25-19, and confidently wait for the re-match in Slovenia in which they will need to claim two sets to go to the next round of the Qualifiers.

Abiant Lycurgus Groningen from The Netherlands appeared in the Champions League for the second time in a row and ran over KV Luboteni Ferizaj from Kosovo on the road by a 3-0.

Another team that swept their rivals in the first leg of the 2nd round of the Qualifiers was Omonia Nicosia from Cyprus. In a duel of the two Champions League rookies, the Cypriot titleholders, who made some outstanding transfer moves recently, downed sensational winners of the Montenegrin league last season, Jedinstvo Bemax Bijelo Polje. The Puerto Rican Pablo Guzmán topped Omonia with 17 points. Jovan Delić made 11 points for Jedinstvo.

Maccabi Tel-Aviv from Israel emerged as the winners against Belarusian Shakhtior Soligorsk in their first-ever Champions League game, 3-2 (25-22, 25-20, 21-25, 15-25, 16-14), thanks to 32 points from the Brazilian Leonardo Santos. Andrei Radziuk notched 21 for Shakhtior.
