PLDT and Cignal seek to join Petron in the semifinals when they collide with separate foes Tuesday in the Philippine Superliga Grand Prix at Filoil Flying V Centre.
Armed with a twice-to-beat privileges, the Power Hitters aim to book a return to the semis when they clash with dangerous Generika-Ayala at 4 p.m., while the HD Spikers face United VC in the 6 p.m. contest.
Petron, which swept the classifications to emerge as top seed in the quarterfinals, made short work of Sta. Lucia to become the first team in the best-of-three semifinal series.
The Blaze Spikers’ main rival, F2 Logistics, however, was dragged into a KO match after suffering a five-set loss to Foton in the other quarterfinal battle.
That makes this explosive double-header interesting after both Generika-Ayala and United VC expressed confidence that they can forge a rubber match.
