Four European sides contest Super Globe

PREVIEW: Magdeburg, Barça, Kielce and Benfica are among the 12 teams, which duel in Saudi Arabia from Tuesday

SC Magdeburg will try to defend their IHF Super Globe title this week in Dammam, Saudi Arabia. Last year, SCM sensationally prevailed against EHF Champions League record winners Barça in the final and will face a stern test to repeat the feat as the competition’s format is different, offering stronger opposition.

For the first time in the history of the championship, twelve teams will compete for the coveted trophy and the winner's check from Tuesday to Sunday - including four European powerhouses.
