The teams faced each other for the third time in a cup final. In the two previous final duels (2016 and 2020), Dresden was just ahead with 3: 2. The Stuttgart women, who won the title for the fourth time after 2011, 2015 and 2017, can continue to dream of the triple. On Tuesday (7:00 p.m./live on SWR Sport) the second leg of the CEV Cup final against Eczacibasi Istanbul is scheduled for Stuttgart after MTV lost the first leg 3-1.
Final game had to be postponed due to corona
Coach Tore Aleksandersen’s team is still undefeated in the Bundesliga. The women’s cup final was originally supposed to take place in Mannheim on March 6, but had to be postponed due to the corona virus. After several positive results, Dresden had fewer than eight players available.
