One of the most experienced Viborg players is Grit Jurack. The 31-year old left-handed backcourt player has 285 internationals caps for Germany and she has been playing for Viborg since 2006. She is satisfied with the preparations for the finals so far.

50-50 chances, Jurack saysGrit Jurack: We had fine trainings before the finals and we will spend the last week before the first leg with fine-tuning our defence and our attack. We will watch videos of Győr games in order to be absolutely sure what they do during the match. I trust our coaches; they will find the best solutions for us

Eurohandball.com: What do you think about the chances?

Grit Jurack: I guess they are 50-50. Győr played a really fine Champions League season, just like we did. Of course, we are still missing Bojana Popovic, but I really think we were doing very well also after her injury. You might say that it is a disadvantage that we are playing the first leg at home, but I hope that we will anyway win at the end.

Eurohandball.com: Most experts thought that Hypo would be your opponents in the final. Is it better of worse to meet Győr?

Grit Jurack: It is hard to say because we have not played against Győr yet. We will have to watch their video and than I hope we will find the right solutions against them. I think that it might be an advantage for us that Györ have a 6:0 defence as we usually play better against this formation than against a kind of 5:1 implemented by Hypo.
