Group A:
All games in this group were played on Wednesday. Schio found themselves overmatched in Ekaterinburg, losing 77-46. The game in Orenburg was going to go a long way in determining which team would take the final spot and it was as tense as expected as Stella Kaltsidou helped Polkowice escape Nadezhda with a 59-55 win to climb back above them in the standings. Valeriane Ayayi and USK Praha took care of business and qualified with an 84-68 win over Villeneuve. Alexia Chartereau and Bourges joined them with an 83-55 win over Castors Braine.
