After nine match days, UHK Krems continue to shine at the top of the HLA table, JAGS end a brief negative run and Bärnbach remain at the bottom of the table. In "Handball - Das Magazin" with presenter Martin Grasl and "Krone" editor Christian Mayerhofer, we take a look back at the weekend and provide an outlook on Austria's upcoming European Championship qualifiers. 

Even before the start of the season, the team from Krems was a powerful force in a tough preparation. After nine rounds, the team from Wachau have 15 points to their name and have only been beaten once by Ibish Taqui's team. Lurking behind them, however, are Harder and BT Füchse, who know how to perform. Bärnbach are still at the bottom of the table, having suffered eight defeats in a row after winning their first game. "Perhaps there is a reason why so many legionnaires are needed," says Krone editor Christian Mayerhofer, who is in favor of a more sustainable concept at the Styrian club.

National team starts EM qualifiers
The next league match on krone.tv will not be shown until November 15 (from 7.25 pm Krems - Schwaz). In the meantime, all eyes will be on the national team, which will play its first two European Championship qualifying group matches. On Thursday, they will face Turkey in Bregenz and on Sunday, Ales Pjajovic's team will play in Schaffhausen (SUI). Austria should be the second strongest team in this group of four behind Germany, but both games still have to be played successfully.
