Volleyball duel: VC Wiesbaden fights for important points against SC Potsdam!

On February 8, 2025, the volleyball teams from VC Wiesbaden (VCW) and SC Potsdam meet in the MBS Arena Potsdam. VC Wiesbaden, currently in sixth place in 1st Volleyball Bundesliga women with 22 points, would like to reduce the distance from SC Potsdam, which is in fifth place with 29 points. This goal has top priority for the Wiesbadeners, especially after a last meeting four weeks ago, in which VCW Potsdam defeated 3-1.

In this previous meeting, the foreign attacker Jade Cholet injured herself in the first set, shortly before she performed strongly with seven points. Their failure could have an impact on the team dynamics of the Potsdamen who are under coach Riccardo Boieri. The last weeks of play were challenging for both teams. VC Wiesbaden had to accept a defeat against SSC Palmberg Schwerin, followed by a clear 3-0 win against Ladies in Black Aachen, in which Libera Rene Sain stood out as the best player.

Current form and team dynamics

For VC Wiesbaden, the style of play against Potsdam is crucial. A compact and aggressive team performance is required to consolidate the current upward trend. Players like Celine Jebens, who scored 18 points at the last encounter and was elected to the MVP, and Tigin Yağlioğlu emphasize the positive team mood. Jonna Wasserfaller emphasizes the importance of the game for team stability.

Thanks to his solid youth work, which was awarded the “Green Band” of the DOSB in 2016, VC Wiesbaden has over 30 young teams, which were able to win numerous titles at national championships. This season the team shows a mixed performance, which is reflected in their current score.

injury and ranking list

Nevertheless, the violation of player Adriana Wełna, who fails due to an outdoor tape tear, remains a serious challenge for the team. The absence of this key player must be taken into account, especially since Sabrina Michelle Starks from Potsdam is in fourth place in the top scorer ranking of the league and thus represents a danger to the defensive of Wiesbaden. In comparison, Celine Jebens occupies the 12th place as the best Wiesbadener in the scoring ranking.

The upcoming duel on Saturday at 5:15 p.m. will be broadcast live on Sport1 and via the streaming service Dyn from 5:00 p.m. The audience can be excited to see whether the VC Wiesbaden can continue its track record against Potsdam or whether the Potsdamen will retaliate for the past defeat.

Regardless of the outcome of the game, it remains clear that the encounter in the Bundesliga is of great importance not only for the two teams, but also for fans and promises exciting volleyball action.
