The SHC Fassa Falcons could not win a single game in the Master Round and finished the intermediate round with only one point at the bottom of the table. Thus, the Italians missed the early jump into the quarterfinals and now have to face the Wipptal Broncos Weihenstephan in the pre-playoffs. The South Tyroleans finished the Qualification Roud A in third place. So far this season, the two teams have faced each other twice. In each case, the away team prevailed. Overall, the Broncos have a clear 8:2 lead in the H2H.

The EC Bregenzerwald is challenged by the HC Gherdeina valgardena.it. The Vorarlberg team finished Qualification Round A in second place. Val Gardena was the best team in Qualification Round B and is also favorite against the ECB. However, out of the last three games the South Tyroleans lost twice. Bregenzerwald also conceded two defeats from the past five games. This season, the meetings in the pre-playoffs will be the first clashes between the two teams.

The Upper Austrians, who qualified for the AHL postseason for the first time, only slipped from second to third place on the final matchday. Both teams have faced each other six times in the international league so far. Five times Cortina kept the upper hand. Only in the first meeting the Steel Wings prevailed.
