SCHWERINER SC
Even though the side around head coach Teun Buijs is considered an underdog in Europe’s most elitist competition, the campaign of SCHWERINER SC had started with a real sensation and namely with a 3:2 home win to edge last year’s bronze medalists of Dinamo KAZAN. After that, the team was stopped – at the end of a real marathon and a breathtaking tie-break – by Romania’s 2004 Tomis CONSTANTA before losing to URBINO, and hence the group needs to get back on track by scoring a positive result in their second match-up with the Italians.
After a sloppy start and two consecutive defeats in Pool E, URBINO – a real rookie in this competition – claimed its first historic win last week and hence the return in Germany is crucial to determine the chances of these sides to eventually advance to the Playoffs 12.
