CHOCO Mucho adopts a cautious approach against Farm Fresh in today’s PVL All-Filipino Conference match at the PhiSports Arena in Pasig, aiming to balance preserving energy and maintaining competitive form ahead of the demanding semifinals.
With a record of 8-2 in a tie with Petro Gazz, Creamline and Chery Tiggo, the Flying Titans can afford to ease off the gas pedal and still secure a spot in the post-eliminations phase.
However, a victory would provide a confidence boost after their recent loss to the Cool Smashers.
Coach Dante Alinsunurin may consider strategic lineup changes in the face of top spiker Kat Tolentino’s continued absence, focusing on developing new combinations for the semis.
Farm Fresh (3-7) is also determined to end its campaign on a high note, promising an intriguing matchup set at 6 p.m.
Nxled and Capital1 tangle at 4 p.m. with the Chameleons seeking to improve their 4-6 record and the Solar Spikers seeking to nail their second win in 10 games.
While Petro Gazz is already assured of a semifinal spot, Creamline and Chery Tiggo need to secure wins to solidify their positions.
PLDT’s slim chance for advancement depends on specific outcomes, underscoring the high stakes as the tournament heads to its last three elims playdates.
