Paola Egonu and teammates await Cuneo
After the success in the CEV Champions League against FC Porto, Numia Vero Volley Milan prepares to return to the court on Saturday January 11 against Honda Olivero Cuneo at the Palalido in Milan at 19:30 (live VBTV and DAZN) for the fourth day of return of Serie A1 Tigotà.
A confrontation, the 15th, that promises to be fiery from the start. In the first match in Piedmont, in fact, the Piedmontese had given a hard time to the meneghine, who had imposed themselves only at the tie-break (25-23; 13-25; 18-25, 25-21, 12-15). After the lack of a smile against Novara, Egonu and her teammates, also strengthened by the new insertion of Anna Smrek, will try to bring home three full points and thus undermine the third position in the standings. Cuneo, on the other hand, comes to this challenge with in its pocket the 3-0 win over Pinerolo, grabbed on the previous day. Only one former: Ludovica Guidi at S.Bernardo Cuneo in 2017/2018.
A Honda Olivero Cuneo completely renewed from last year, with the only confirmation at the dribble of Signorile. Many young grafts such as Colombo, Scialanca, Kapralova, Turco, Panetoni and Bakodimou, with the season-long arrival of U.S. powerhouse Dodson; Martinez, Polder, Cecconello, Bjelica, Lazic and Sanchez Savon complete the roster to make an important contribution of experience. New change also on the bench with Lorenzo Pintus from Casalmaggiore replacing coach Micoli.
"Cuneo will arrive in Milan certainly energized after the victory in the last match and ready to fight to continue collecting points,” coach Stefano Lavarini told Numia Vero Volley Milano channels.” Remembering the difficulties it created for us in the first leg thanks to an excellent wall and defense phase, we will face this challenge with the utmost attention, determined to get the success".
