The MEVZA League will continue on Saturday evening with an Austrian derby. Last season’s bronze medallists Union Raiffeisen WALDVIERTEL will clash with rookies and bottom of the table UVC Holding GRAZ in Zwettl. Both sides have contested three matches in the main round so far. While the hosts have a 1-2 win-loss record, the team from Styria was not able to secure a single point up until now.

“We have already won at Union Raiffeisen WALDVIERTEL, but that was a little while ago. Of course, we are fully motivated and we definitely aim to record the very first points in our maiden season in the MEVZA League,” UVC GRAZ outside hitter Johannes Kratz explained.
On Wednesday, Union Raiffeisen WALDVIERTEL built up confidence with a comprehensive 3-0 victory at Lindaren Volley LUZERN in their CEV Volleyball Challenge Cup 2021 opener. As a result, the team from Lower Austria has already booked its spot in the 8th Finals of that competition.
