Following in the footsteps of THW Kiel, their northern German neighbours SG Flensburg-Handewitt and former EHF Champions League winners Montpellier Handball completed the EHF European League group matches with a perfect record of six wins on Tuesday. This trio, along with MT Melsungen despite their first defeat and Bidasoa Irun after securing a second victory over Ystad, will carry four points each into the main round, which begins on 11 February 2025. Meanwhile, six of the 16 teams will start the next stage with two points.
