In an exciting match-up at the PhilSports Arena, it’s the red-hot PLDT team facing off against the struggling Strong Group Athletics.
PLDT, coming off a fourth straight win against Akari, is in great form with a 6-1 record. A win against the winless SGA Spikers, who are at 0-7, would propel them to a tie for the top spot with the Choco Mucho Flying Titans. The team, led by Fil-Canadian Savannah Davison, is looking to build momentum as they head into the crucial stages of the league.
Coach Rald Ricafort emphasized the importance of securing a victory, especially with tough matches against Chery Tiggo, Cignal, and Creamline in their final elimination round assignments. Star player Majoy Baron is also in top form, scoring a match-high 13 points in their last game and feeling confident in her performance.
In another match, Nxled and Farm Fresh, with identical 2-5 records, will battle it out for a chance at semifinal survival. Nxled is coming off a strong win against SGA Spikers, while Farm Fresh is looking to bounce back from a tough defeat against the Cignal HD Spikers. The games are set to kick off at 4 p.m. and 6 p.m., respectively.
