In the fourth round, we can start talking about qualifying for the Final Eight and some matches could already indicate the way for who will pass the round. Barça and Benfica are the two teams with a certain advantage in the standings. The recent winners of the “Copa del Rey” will be play at Lodi, still with zero points in the standing, already defeated 5-0 in the third matchday. For Benfica, first in Group A, they have to do it again to take off in the standing, after the results of 5-2 in Oliveira de Azemeis. Deportivo Liceo will also have to repeat themselves after the 4-3 victory at Calafell’a Arena. In Group B, on the other hand, everything starts from scratch, because after the first round of matches there are three teams with five points. Group open to all solutions: Trissino will host Noia Freixenet, creators of a tough tie in the last match for 4-4. Porto, fresh from the 5-0 victory against Sarzana, are eager to repeat themselves in order to remain in the first place. The surprising third round of Group D reshuffled all the cards in the standings and now Reus and Saint Omer, after the away victories, can repeat themselves to break the rules of this group. In Group C another match will be very interesting because it could define the second force after Barça: Forte-Valongo after the 4-4, will be able to entertain again because both have an interest in going through to Final Eight.
