📋 Team News: Ascoli
Availability isn’t a big problem, with just one fitness concern for the Ascoli gaffer Andrea Sottil to be concerned about from of an almost fully healthy group of players. Lukas Spendlhofer (Unknown Injury) is out of contention.
In our view, Bianconeri could make use of the 4-3-1-2 system this time, handing starts to Nicola Leali, Federico Baschirotto, Eric Botteghin, Giuseppe Bellusci, Nicola Falasco, Michele Collocolo, Fabrizio Caligara, Dario Saric, Fabio Maistro, Frank Tsadjout and Federico Dionisi.
🗞️ Team News: Benevento
Owing to a fully healthy squad available for selection, the Benevento manager Fabio Caserta has zero fitness worries to report before this game.
We’re of the thinking that Benevento might make use of a 4-3-3 lineup, starting Alberto Paleari, Gaetano Letizia, Federico Barba, Kamil Glik, Edoardo Masciangelo, Giacomo Calo, Gennaro Acampora, Artur Ionita, Riccardo Improta, Gianluca Lapadula and Andres Tello.
🔮 Prediction
Our thinking is that Benevento and Ascoli should both be able to score here although it’s hard to pick a clear winner.
It could well end in a draw. That’s why we have predicted a very close game with a 1-1 score at the conclusion of the game.
