VaLePa played Berlin in CEV Cup yesterday to stun them and win 3-1 after two hours in the game. They are not set to face SAMPA not even 24 hours later. Key players like Esk, Kunnari and Chouri played that whole match. Chouri did particularly well to finish with 30 points even though he had some cramps. There's not a lot of information on VaLePa's website, only the announcement that players who usually don't get a lot time on the floor will have their chance today. It's not very likely we'll see Esk, Kunnari or Chouri or one of the middle blockers. There is also the issue of motivation. They are in spot two in the table 12 points short of Tiikeririt and have 5 points more than LEK, whom they meet on Sunday. That next game is much more important. SAMPo, on the other hand, are in the race for the spot 5. There are a few teams that are very close, which is why they'll be very motivated today. SAMPO lost to Hurricani 1-3 yesterday after winning 5 games but that's no surprise since their opponents are Top 3 in the Finnish league. VaLePa won both games of the season - 3-2 away and 3-0 home but with Eks, Kunnari and Chouri on the team. They will almost certainly not ply today. It's really not like this will finish in straight sets since VaLePa didn't have it easy even last time.
