Defending champions SG Flensburg-Handewitt booked their ticket for the Winamax EHF Finals 2026 as the first team. After a draw against their German rivals TSV Hannover-Burgdorf on home ground last week, the team of Aleš Pajović won the goal fest in Hanover in the second leg 43:35. No other team has ever scored more goals in a single quarter-final match or on aggregate in any quarter-final in the EHF European League Men.

Now, Flensburg aim to become the first team with three consecutive trophies in this competition. After a weak start, goalkeeper Kevin Møller became the key for Flensburg.

The draw for the Winamax EHF Finals will be conducted on Friday 8 May, 11:00 CEST (live on EHFTV). Later in the evening Flensburg were joined by Kiel, Melsungen and Montpellier completing the same setup for the final tournament like a year ago.
