Alps Hockey League:
Sat, 23.10.2021, 18:30: HC Gherdeina valgardena.it - SHC Fassa Falcons
Referees: MOSCHEN, VIRTA, De Zordo, Rigoni

En el derby Ladino the HC Gherdeina valgardena.it faces the SHC Fassa Falcons . Both Val Gardena (3:1 win at Merano) and Fassa (5:2 against Feldkirch) had a sense of achievement on Thursday. For the Falcons it was even the second win in a row. Nevertheless, both teams are in the lower third of the table with the ranks 13 and 15. For Gardena, the performance at home has so far prevented a better ranking, as five of six home games have been lost. In the direct AHL comparison, however, the "Furie" is clearly ahead with 12:4 wins.

Sat, 23.10.2021, 19:00: EC-KAC Future Team - Wipptal Broncos Weihenstephan
Referees: KUMMER, PODLESNIK, Holzer, Puff

With two home wins against Meran and Kitzbühel, the KAC recently improved back to seventh place. The Carinthians won five of seven home games this season. The guests from Sterzing defeated Lustenau on Thursday and are currently in ninth place - the Broncos are one point behind the KAC, but have played four games less. In the direct comparison Sterzing leads with 11:3, but in the last two games Klagenfurt held the upper hand.

Sat, 23.10.2021, 19:15: Vienna Capitals Silver - EK Die Zeller Eisbären
Referees: HEINRICHER, OREL, Reisinger, Voican

On Saturday, there will be the first AHL appearance at the Merkur Eisstadion in Graz. So the Vienna Capitals Silver - among others with the Styrian cooperation players Amadeus Egger, Rupert Fichtinger, Cornelius Kaschnig, Kevin Pesendorfer and Killian Rappold - will meet the Zeller Eisbären. While Vienna is at the bottom of the table with one win in the season after ten games, the visitors are currently in 5th place in the standings. The Salzburg side, who won all three previous AHL meetings with Vienna, recently celebrated a sensational win against Jesenice and also won the away game against Bregenzerwald.

Sat, 23.10.2021, 19:30: BEMER VEU Feldkirch - HC Meran/o Pircher
Referees: HOLZER, LAZZERI, Bedana, Spiegel

Feldkirch and Meran are looking for a sense of achievement. VEU won only one of the last nine games and is on the second last place in the table. After a good start to the season, Meran recently lost five games in a row, with the league newcomer slipping to 14th place. Both teams have struggled in attack so far this season, with the Vorarlberg side even having the weakest offense with only 18 goals scored.

Sat, 23.10.2021, 19:30: EHC Lustenau - S.G. Cortina Hafro
Referees: BENVEGNU, SCHAUER, Da Pian, Rinker

Lustenau has alternated between wins and losses in the last four games, and on Thursday the EHC was defeated 2:5 in Sterzing. The fourth-placed Vorarlberg team won five of their seven home games so far and can also rely on the goal-scoring qualities of Chris D'Alvise this season. The 35-year-old Canadian has already recorded 17 points in eleven games. Cortina improved to eighth place with two wins and could even overtake the Lions with another full success. In the direct comparison, the Italians lead with 6:4 wins.

Sat, 23.10.2021, 20:00: Steel Wings Linz - EC Bregenzerwald
Referees: BRUNNER, LEHNER, Legat, Moidl
