Thu, 26.09.2019, 19:15: HK SZ Olimpija Ljubljana - Rittner Buam
Referees: BRUNNER, FAJDIGA, Javornik, Moidl
Defending champion HK SZ Olimpija Ljubljana started surprisingly weak in the new season. They succeeded their first victory last Sunday against the previously unbeaten VEU Feldkirch. With the Rittner Buam another strong opponent awaits the Slovenians on Thursday. The South Tyroleans won three of their first four games of the season. Most recently Ritten received a close overtime defeat against the HC Pustertal Wölfe in the derby. In the direct duel of both teams Olimpija leads clearly. Seven of the ten duels in the Alps Hockey League were won by the Slovenes.

With the derby victory against the Rittner Buam, the HC Pustertal Wölfe won their first game of the season on Saturday. Now the South Tyroleans want to beat the Red Bull Hockey Juniors. The young bulls have lost two of their first three games of the season but both with only one goal difference.

Thu, 26.09.2019, 19:30: EC-KAC II - Migros Supermercati Asiago Hockey
Referees: DURCHNER, OREL, Holzer, Legat
In the second duel between Austria and Italy, the EC-KAC II meets Migross Supermercati Asiago Hockey. The second team of the current champion of the Erste Bank Eishockey Liga started extremely successful in the new season. Klagenfurt could win two of their first three games which is why they are currently on sixth place in the league table. Asiago, however, lost two of their first three games of the season. After a tight opening victory against Fassa, they were without a chance against the Rittner Buam (5:10), as well as against HC Gherdeina Valgardena.it (3-8). A defeat against the EC-KAC II would still be a surprise, because the Carinthians could never win against Asiago before.
