Chez les dames, comme l’an passé, le TC Paris sera opposé à l’ASPTT Metz, tandis que chez les messieurs, le TC Quimperlé affrontera Villa Primrose. Ces deux affiches s’annoncent particulièrement ouvertes. Chez les dames, le TC Paris, tenant du titre, tentera de décrocher un septième titre dans cette compétition (après 1988, 1989, 1990, 2015, 2017 et 2019). Le club de la capitale, emmené par Pauline Parmentier et Tatjana Maria, a assuré sa qualification pour la finale en s’imposant à domicile face au TC Saint-Dié lors de la dernière journée. L'ASPTT Metz, vainqueur du premier titre de son histoire il y a 2 ans (2018), aura à cœur de prendre sa revanche sur le TC Paris qui l'avait battu en finale, l'an passé. Le club de la ligue du Grand-Est, qui compte dans ses rangs notamment la Belge Ysaline Bonaventure et la Russe Ekaterina Alexandrova, affiche le plein de confiance après avoir réalisé un sans-faute en phase de poules avec 4 victoires en 4 matchs.
