Dynamo Pardubice vs Grizzlys Wolfsburg
After thumping Pardubice 6-0 on Sunday, Wolfsburg travel to the Czech Republic with the Round of 32 in their sights. Getting the game to overtime will be enough for Wolfsburg because of their superior head-to-head record over Pardubice, while a win will keep them in with a chance of winning the group when they visit Frolunda in their final game. Pardubice must win the game in 60 minutes to stay alive.
Pardubice coach Peter Draisaitl was obviously disappointed with his team's effort in Wolfsburg: "We put on a disappointing performance, but on Wednesday we it will be completely different," he promises.
Should Pardubice get into a lead of a few goals, it will be interesting to see how the aggregate score factors into how the teams play. That would become the tie-breaker in the event Pardubice wins this game in regulation, and then Wolfsburg earns one point in Gothenburg.
