As in their first meeting of the season, the Juniors once again came out on top against the Broncos. After a 4–1 away win ten days ago, Salzburg followed up with another strong performance on home ice Tuesday evening. The dominant hosts took the lead in the 10th minute when Maximilian Wurzer found himself free in the slot and made no mistake. The Juniors continued to control play but failed to capitalize on their chances for a long stretch. In the 54th minute, Nick Maul doubled the lead on a counterattack after a pinpoint pass from Oberhauser. Sterzing went all in during the closing minutes, pulling goaltender Groh with two minutes remaining. Davide Conci cut the deficit to 2–1 with 43 seconds left, but the visitors could not find an equalizer. The Juniors reinforced their status as the league’s best home team and strengthened their lead at the top.

Cortina vs. Gardena postponed
The game scheduled for Tuesday between S.G. Cortina Hafro and HC Gherdeina valgardena.it has been postponed to Sunday, December 7. The reason is that Gherdeina cannot field a goalie due to illness and therefore cannot play. Cortina agreed to the postponement, so the game has been rescheduled.
