In Group A there is no undefeated teams as SPG Walter Wels was beaten at home by 2012 TTCLM semi-finalist Saarbrucken actual leader in Bundesliga. Crucial moment for 3:0 win of German club was opening clash in which Bojan TOKIC defeated Yuya OSHIMA who had 4-0 individual score after Round 2 (in the Round 1 he overcame both greats Vladimir SAMSONOV and Dimitrij OVTCHAROV). Slovenian prevailed against Japanese in four games. After that Tiago APOLONIA and Adrien METTENET achieved fast wins against Mihai BOBOCICA and Zsolt PETO respectively. As Saarbrucken`s coach Slobodan GRUJIC stressed in pre-game statement this match could be a turning point for his side which lost both its games in first two rounds.

Russian club the 2012 TTCLM runner-up continues with 2-1 score in Group B.
