Two home-and-away ties for Macedonian representatives
Rabotnicki travel to Greece to face ZAON Kifisia in the opening match, which kicks off at 17:00 local time (Macedonian time). The Macedonian champion, who was among the seeded teams in the draw, will attempt to match the Greek vice-champion in the Zirinio sports hall in Kifisia, a suburb of Athens.
Later tonight Janta Volej KV will host the Czech side Praga in Kumanovo. The first leg in the Challenge Cup tie starts at 19:30 at the local sports hall, where the home team will look to use the advantage of the home court and secure a favourable result ahead of the return match.
