The semifinals of the Volleyball Bundesliga are set as Stuttgart, Dresden, Schwerin, and Suhl all secured their spots — while SC Potsdam faces a disappointing early exit.
Allianz MTV Stuttgart powered past USC Münster with a convincing 3-0 win, wrapping up the quarterfinal series in just two games. Led by MVP Pia Kästner and a strong showing from Pauline Martin, the defending champions now prepare for a high-stakes clash against Dresden SC.
Dresden claimed their place with a 3-1 victory over VC Wiesbaden in both matches of the best-of-three series. Coach Alexander Waibl credited improved serve pressure and defense as the keys to success. Marta Levinska starred with 20 points.
SSC Palmberg Schwerin also delivered a dominant performance, defeating Aachen 3-0 to seal their semifinal berth. Despite passionate home support, Aachen couldn’t recover from Schwerin’s control and consistency.
VfB Suhl LOTTO Thüringen completed the semifinal lineup with a 3-1 win over SC Potsdam, ending Potsdam’s season in the quarterfinals. Suhl showed resilience and sharp execution, while Potsdam struggled to hold momentum.
As the playoffs heat up, Stuttgart will face Dresden and Schwerin takes on Suhl in the semifinal round.
