Match info

Reset and focus on the following game for Sir Susa Vim Perugia and Cucine Lube Civitanova is what they both need, with the realization that this is the Play Off of the 2024-25 SuperLega Credem Banca. Game 5 of the Semifinals will be the pivotal event of the series on Thursday, April 24, at 8:30 p.m. local time at PalaBarton. The victorious team will face Itas Trentino in the championship series of the Italian men’s volleyball championship, the most prestigious national competition in the world.

Meeting statistics

The current form of Sir Susa Vim Perugia

If we discuss the reset, Perugia may have more difficulties carrying it out, given that they were ahead of Lube in the Regular Season (Perugia were second, Lube were third) and had a 2-0 series record. They are, however, undoubtedly capable of accomplishing so. As a result of being better placed before the Play Off, Perugia will play the pivotal match at home in a packed arena, and we believe they can perform admirably and prevail.

This belief is further supported by the analysis of the fourth game played at the Eurosuole Forum in Civitanova, which was fought mostly point by point, even though it ended with the score of 3-0 for the hosts. Why is that? Even on a night when the service wasn’t the deadly weapon that has always set the team apart, “The Block Devils” were always close on the score. The attack balance, with both teams’ final game effectiveness percentages being the same at 52%, points to this evidence. So, regaining self-confidence is the only thing the Angelo Lorenzetti guys need to accomplish at the moment.

The current form Cucine Lube Civitanova

With almost supernatural perseverance, Lube defied the predictions and odds of new bookie sites in the energetic city of Civitanova in central Italy, making the SuperLega – Semifinals an incredible event for both spectators and experts. The squad coached by Giampaolo Medei displayed remarkable fortitude and tenacity when facing elimination, defeating Perugia in the fourth game and tying the series after being two matches down. Everything is still on the line right now.

Lube demonstrated the above-mentioned incredible tenacity even before Game 4 by nullifying a match point in Game 3’s tie-break. This outcome maintained the possibility of keeping the title. The fourth game showcased Lube players’ technical and tactical prowess in front of a warm and enthusiastic home crowd at the Eurosuole Forum. The accomplishment was primarily executed by the outside hitters Aleksandar Nikolov and Mattia Bottolo.

Head-to-head

These two have faced one another on 44 occasions, of course, mostly in SuperLega, but they weren’t strangers in European competitions either. Perugia have a better record head-to-head: 25-19.

Match analytics

We agree that Lube’s effort of tying the series at 2-2 deserves applause. However, we think that Perugia’s players will get a grip after this shock and win Game 5, thus making it to the championship series. However, that won’t happen without a huge battle for every ball, meaning that a five-setter is to be expected.

Tip: Correct Score: 3:2, with odds of 5.4 on IRWIN Casino.
