They play Växjö again a need to take some points if they want to have a chance of progressing to the knockout stage. Home ice should be advantage for Czech team, but they can feel a lot of pressure. Växjö Lakers come to this match in really good shape. They won 7:3 against BK Mlada Boleslav, so they can be really confident going into this match. They can make a real step to qualification to the next stage if they win in City of Škoda Auto.
