Five Lugano Tigers and four Neuchatel players scored in double figures. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games.

Lugano Tigers will face league's second-placed SAV Vacallo in Chiasso in the next round and it will be for sure the game of the week. Neuchatel will play at home against SAM Massagno (#7) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
