CREAMLINE and Petro Gazz add another chapter to a rivalry that, for many, has become a defining feature in Philippine volleyball as the top two clubs face off for the first time in the Premier Volleyball League Second All-Filipino Conference elims at the Philsports Arena in Pasig on Thursday.
The 6 p.m. match carries high stakes – a continued hold of the solo lead or a possible share of it. The Cool Smashers seek to stay unbeaten in five matches and the Angels go for their fifth win in six games.
The much-awaited tussle also caps the first and only four-game bill calendared in the tournament that also includes two of the league’s fancied teams looking to strengthen their chances in the season-ending conference of the league organized by Sports Vision and backed by Mikasa, BingoPlus, ArenaPlus, SMART, Rebisco, Milcu, Kumu, Asics, and SportRadar.
PLDT, on a four-game roll since dropping a four-setter to Cignal last Oct. 15, tangles with winless Galeries at 2 p.m. while Chery Tiggo, also toting a 4-1 slate, squares off with a skidding Nxled side at 4 p.m. pvl.ph
