Champions League
Veszprém – Kielce pregame statements
A very important game will take place in Veszprém Aréna on Saturday at 17:30 in the VELUX EHF Champions League, when the Polish champion PGE Vive Kielce visits Telekom Veszprém. We asked our head coach and players about the upcoming clash.
David Davis: Kielce is a great team, everyone knows that. They give the best performances against the quality teams. It is always complicated to play and win against them. We need to win against them on home court, because we lost there and we need to balance out the result between us. It is going to be a great game, because we have the same amount of points. That is the most beautiful time of the Champions League, when you start feeling the pressure of the competition and have to fight for the best possible position.

Blaz Blagotinsek: It will be a very hard game, because Kielce is in a great shape. They won against Vardar with 10 goals. We have good chances to win at home, and to give them back the loss we suffered there. We have every chance, but we have to play patiently, as we did in the last two games. I think the defense will be the key and of course the saves from goalkeepers. If we concentrate on what we plan for the game, we can achieve a good result.

Petar Nenadic: We played so many games against them in the last few years, that there is nothing that we do not know about them and nothing they do not know about us. It is just the fact of who will be more concentrated and most disciplined will win. It is a one ball game, like 90% of the games in our group. We need to stay focused for sixty minutes and try to keep the points at our house. That is the most important. How we win, or if we play amazing handball that is not important. We have to keep the two points in Veszprém Arena!

Borut Mackovsek: I think it is going to be hard. We have to win all home games, because we cannot lose any points at home. If we want to be where we want to be, we cannot make any mistakes. For us, the only option is to win on Saturday.
