The Women’s Handball Champions League will culminate with the Final 4 in Budapest, Hungary this weekend. In the second semi-final, the French Méty and the German surprise Bietigheim will face each other and the Czech national team’s Veronika Mala.
Bietigheim was not counted on much before the season and the results from the preliminary group did not suggest success. The Bundesliga team finished sixth out of eight, but switched gears in the playoffs and knocked out two Danish teams. Ikast in the eighth round and Odense in the quarter-finals, both by a combined score of 60:58. It is noteworthy that he had lost clearly twice before to Odense in the group stage (29:42, 25:28). Bietigheim’s performance progression is obvious and he will want to confirm it in the semi-finals.
Méty have been building a squad for years, adding more players to the puzzle every year, with coach Emmanuel Mayonnade having been there since 2015. His selection has no obvious weakness, every post is a representative, everyone is well duplicated. The Métis dominated the regular group with a record of 11 wins and 3 losses and went straight to the quarter-finals, where they beat Romania’s CSM Bucharest twice (27:24, 29:23).
What to bet on:
The favourite of the match is a given, but Bietigheim’s rise is impressive and the expected victory of the Mets could be close. Even if it was just a summer training, both teams remember that the mutual match ended in a 31:31 draw. Bietigheim will not lose by more than five goals.
Confidence:
7/10
