One of the Championship's most interesting game is the one between the two baltic countries Latvia and Lithuania who meet on friday night in Himmelstalundshallen.

"It is an important game, if we lose, we can pack our things and go home", Lithuanian coach Atanas Sireika said with a smile.

His colleague, Armands Kraulins, agreed on the importance of the game. "I think group B is the best one of the whole championship. Every game will be a tough one. But we are ready", Kraulins said.
