Three of the four matches of the 2nd preliminary round of the Champions League were played yesterday. Home defeat for the Bulgarians of Hebar Pazardzhik, still without Italian head coach Placi (absent for health reasons) against the Belarusians of Soligorsk.
Prediction respected instead in the other matches, with the 3-point wins by Karlovarsko and Olympiacos, both on the road.
