Our team will come in the strongest line-up. We will fight for the promotion to the next phase of the Champions League.”

 

Saarbrucken coach Slobodan GRUJIC stressed that he believes in his side. German team hosts Dartom Bogoria while Angers travels to Denmark.

“We are going to play our last group game in front of our fans and the victory would guarantee top spot for us. It was our plan. Obviously it is very challenging task bearing in mind that we lost 3:0 in Poland. I estimate the chances at 50-50 and I believe in my team.”

 

Andrea LANDRIEU Angers player won two matches against Saarbrucken. Now he speaks about Round 6 game:

“It will be a very interesting match. If we win we are sure to reach quarterfinals and if we lose we still have a chance depending of the other match of the group. Roskilde is a very strong team they are confident with their win against Bogoria last week so we know it will be a very difficult match so we will try our best to win and have our destiny in our hands. “

Coach of French Cedric NUYTINCK explains :

“For this group match it’s sure that it will be very difficult with the wounds of Liam (PITCHFORD) Quentin (ROBINOT) and FAN (Sheng Peng). We are very much reduced but we will try to do the maximum against a team of Orenburg who even if we were full would be largely favorite. After about our course in this group we took a very bad start with the three defeats but the two wins 3-0 have revived us. We are sure to make a quarter final of the European Cup we will see which one according to the results”
