Three away games remaining
The French team, who are playing their debut season in the European club competitions, have already faced all their group rivals at home. After two narrow defeats against Viborg HK and SCM Ramnicu Valcea, Chambray finally earned their first win and should not be written off as a contender for a quarter-final spot. However, it will not be easy for them to reach this goal, as they will play all three remaining matches away from home.
