Wednesday, 21.10.2020: EC Bregenzerwald - VEU Feldkirch 19:30
Referees: HOLZER / SCHAUER / EISL / HUBER
In the only Wednesday game, VEU Feldkirch goes into the second part of the duel with EC Bregenzerwald with a seven-goal lead. The three points, and thus the maximum of points after the R2P games, seems to be unrivalled by Feldkirch. Also the record in the Alps Hockey League speaks a clear language. Bregenzerwald could only win two of 15 derbies - and these only with a difference of one goal. Bregenzerwald will most likely finish the R2P games without any points.

R2P first leg: 8:1 for VEU Feldkirch

Thursday, 22.10.2020: HDD SIJ Acroni Jesenice - EC KAC 19:00
Referees: LESNIAK / REZEK / MIKLIC / SNOJ
More exciting could be the duel HDD SIJ Acroni Jesenice against the EC-KAC. The Slovenians recorded a 3:2 success. Both teams have won one of the two R2P duels so far and are now in the standings with three points. The deciding match in Jesenice will decide the second place in this R2P group. If the team from Klagenfurt succeeds with a goal difference after 60 minutes, the match goes into over time. In case of a draw or a win by Jesenice the full three points remain in Slovenia.

R2P first leg: 3:2 for HDD SIJ Acroni Jesenice

Thursday, 22.10.2020: Steel Wings Linz - HK SZ Olimpija Ljubljana 19:00
Referees: BRUNNER / LEHNER / MOIDL / REISINGER
The Steel Wings Linz welcome the reigning champion with the HK SZ Olimpija Ljubljana. The defeat in Slovenia was correspondingly clear. Ljubljana seems to capture the three points. This would have taken them to the maximum of nine points from the R2P games. Steel Wings Linz will in all probability finish the R2P duels without points.

R2P first leg: 9:0 for HK SZ Olimpija Ljubljana

Thursday, 22.10.2020: EC Die Adler Stadtwerke Kitzbühel - EHC Lustenau 19:30
Referees: HUBER / RUETZ / MARTIN / SPIEGEL
Both Kitzbühel and the EHC Lustenau were able to win one of the two R2P duels to date. Both teams had to admit defeat in the clash with VEU Feldkirch if both teams won at least one of the two duels with Feldkirch. In the overall score, however, they both lost. After the first round in the duel between Kitzbühel and Lustenau the Vorarlbergers have the better chances. In Lustenau they were able to gain a buffer of two goals.

R2P first leg: 3:1 for EHC Lustenau

Thursday, 22.10.2020: Rittner Buam - Red Bull Hockey Juniors 20:00
Referees: GIACOMOZZI / MOSCHEN / CRISTELI / MANTOVANI
Both the Rittner Buam and the Red Bull Hockey Juniors were only able to bring a limited number of points into the table. While the Salzburgers are still without points despite two victories, the Buam - also with two wins - were able to save at least one point in the standings. In this clash, however, the Juniors have the much better chances, winning the home game against Ritten 7:2. Although Salzburg could not win an away game this season, a five-goal cushion could still be enough for the first points in the table.

R2P First leg: 7-2 for Red Bull Hockey Juniors

Thursday, 22.10.2020: HC Pustertal Wölfe- Wipptal Broncos Weihenstephan 20:00
Referees: LEGA / STEFENELLI / BASSO / PIRAS
HC Pustertal Wolves against Wipptal Broncos Weihenstephan is the top game of the R2P duels. While the Broncos are at the maximum score of six points after two return matches, the Wolves only had to give up one point. Furthermore, the Broncos start with a small lead into the decisive clash in Pustertal. However, the balance is only one goal and the Wolves have the much better balance against the Broncos in the Alps Hockey League.

R2P first leg: 3:2 for Wipptal Broncos Weihenstephan
