One Veszprém HC are the big winners of the first round of group A in 2025: The leaders did not only win at Bucharest, but extended the gap to the second position to five points, as previous runners-up Paris Saint-Germain Handball stumbled on Orlen Wisla Plock on home ground. Thanks to their hard-earned win against Eurofarm Pelister, Sporting CP are now second ranked. Besides, Füchse Berlin booked their ticket for the knock-out stage, beating Fredericia.
