The Danish without a few important players

Szeged have a wider roster, ad that's probably going to become prominent in the two legs. In home games BSV stood up to the strong teams, and this could be a very interesting game

For a long time the Danish were on the verge of getting knocked out, but the win in Keil was the turning point. They confirmed it at home against Kadetten, and now they're among the Top 16 in Europe. That was their goal in a way, and now it's been achieved, so they have no pressure in this game. They proved they can be dangerous if Szeged won't take them seriously, that's not the way they will reach quarter-finals.

The last few days they were busy in the home championship. They played a lot of great games, tied wins, but they also lost the important back Damgaard. Since it's a calf muscle tear, he's going to be out for the following four to six weeks. That means we'll see Markussen and Skube on full play-time, and Olsson could help as the left back.

Except for Damgaard, second goalkeeper Frandsen and right wing Jonas Hansen are also out.

-Szeged are the favorites in the first two legs. We have a lot of injury problems, they have 16 players capable of playing at a top level, and we don't - said Sebastian Skube.

- We're extremely happy to be here, everyone in the club is pleased and we already achieved something big. Szeged have the better team, but we're still dreaming of winning.

They can have a solid defense with Thomsen, Jensen and Knudsen, and they will try to stop the Hungarians with them, like they did against the strong teams such as Kiel, Flens and Barca in home games.

- The chances of us passing are maybe 20%, but we're not thinking about the second leg. The chances of winning in the first one are bigger - added coach Bredsdorff-Larsen.

We can say for Szeged that they profited a lot in the last round of Group B. Other results helped them out, they beat Lowen in Germany and went against objectively the most wanted rivals.

- We did a good job and ended third, but now everything is possible. It's a good thing we've been playing for a long time in Szeged - said Stas Skube, the younger brother.

- Our coach knows all of BSV's players, he's seen a lot of their games, and I've seen a lot of them too. We know they're strong.

Their overture was in the derby against Veszprem. They lost 24-22, which pleased them in a certain way, because they won at home with 26-23.

- We made a big step towards the first place in the group phase, and now we have to watch out not to spill points somewhere - said Zsolt Balogh.

- We're heading to Denmark to show that we're the favorites and come back with a win. They're a typical Scandinavian team, they're playing fast, they're smart in the offense.

BSV have quality defense, with which they defeated Kiel 24-21, but at the same time they lack width in offense and they like playing longer attacks. Their strong home games during the season looked as follows: Skjern 53, Aalborg 49, Barca 50, Kiel 53, Flensburg 44. At Wisla they played at 53, at home there was a 33-24 blowout.
Szeged played at 46 goals at Meshkov the other day, before that 54 at Lowen, 52 at Kielce, 48 at Meshkov, 50 at kristianstad, 50 at Zagreb, while 56 at Celje and 57 at Vardar (at home 44 against them) are not minuses in my opinion because of the way those two teams play, especially at home. In the situation when every goal counts, when the home team have thin backfield line, and solid defense, and the away team are strong, this is not a game for over 55 goals.
