Reigning ECLW champion is going to face Metz TT this Friday November 23rd in the ECLW Round 5

ECLW Round 5 will be held from Thursday to Sunday November 22-25th as reigning champion Dr. CASL will host actual ETTU Cup Women winner Metz TT this Friday. Croatian side will play for its fourth consecutive win while French team has 1-1 win-loss record in the Group A so far. Dr. CASL has been extended to full distance in the first encounter held in France four weeks ago.

“Our last two games in Metz and Budaorsi we didn’t play on our usual level but we managed to win in spite of it. This Friday our players must deliver their 100 % in order to win this game and secure top spot in our group before the quarter-finals. Any other outcome will put us in very difficult situation on our way to another ECLW title. However only you count are victories and it’s important to succeeded it even you play far from your best. That will make our goals easier during the decisive months April and May when we have to be in our best shape fighting in all four competitions: ECLW Central-European Super League Croatian Super League and domestic Cup. Through the current games we are going to adjust our shape to reach its peak when it be required from us bearing in mind that we need to play 45 games during the season what is really exhausting” stated Dr. CASL’s president Martin-Tino CASL.

Former four-times ECLW winner TTC Berlin Eastside hosts Etival Clairefontaine ASRTT in the Group B. German side (3-0 win-loss record) has secured its place in the knockout stage while French team (1-1) still fights for it. Berlin beat Clairefontaine 3:0 four weeks ago.

Two more favourites are determined to conclude their group stage with 4-0 win-loss record: two-times ECLW champion Linz AG Froschberg vs. TT Saint Quentinois and two-times runner-up KTS Enea Siarka Tarnobrzeg – SKST Mart Hodonin-Stavoimpex.
