L’Hospitalet Pioners @ Osos Rivas
Osos Rivas, 2023 finalists, with the stingiest defense in Spain, will play host to a Pioners squad that was the most improved team in the league this year. Osos finished first in the West after beating arch rivals the Black Demons late in the year. L’Hospitalet will have a tough time of it against an Osos Rivas team that has reached the final two years in a row and won the title in 2022.
