HIGHLIGHT MATCHES
GROUP A
Sunday 15 February, 14:00 CET, live on EHFTV
- Thüringer HC are playing in decent form on home court this season, as they have recorded eight wins and noted only a couple of defeats across all competitions
- the reigning EHF European League champions sit in third place with four points and with an eventual loss, they will be eliminated from the race to reach the quarter-finals, as even if leaders CS Minaur Baia Mare lose, they count on the head-to-head advantage
- Motherson Mosonmagyarovari KC celebrated a two-goal win (36:34) in the reverse fixture in Hungary, despite Johanna Reichert scoring 16 goals for Thüringer HC
- the Hungarian club sits in second place with six points and can secure a spot in the quarter-finals with an eventual win in Germany, leaving them with a chance to decide group A's final rankings against CS Minaur Baia Mare on home court in round 6
- unlike Thüringer HC, who played a midweek match in Germany's top tier, Dragan Adžic's squad enjoyed a full week to prepare for the match
