🗞️ Team News: Pisa

There is just the sole fitness concern for the Pisa boss Luca D'Angelo to be concerned about from an otherwise fully-primed group. Idrissa Touré (Unknown Injury) is out of contention. Ineligible players who cannot play in this game through suspension are Gaetano Masucci, Olimpiu Morutan and Marius Marin.

In all likelihood, Nerazzurri will probably opt for a 3-4-3 formation, handing starts to Nicolas, Antonio Caracciolo, Federico Barba, Hjörtur Hermannsson, Emanuele Zuelli, Giuseppe Mastinu, Alessandro De Vitis, Pietro Beruatto, Matteo Tramoni, Ettore Gliozzi and Ernesto Torregrossa.

📋 Team News: SPAL

SPAL manager Massimo Oddo has to contend with a number of unavailable players. Luca Valzania (Cruciate Ligament Injury) and Radja Nainggolan (Hamstring Injury) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.

We are inclined to think that SPAL appear most likely to make use of a 4-4-2 lineup, settling for Enrico Alfonso, L. Maria Dickmann, Marco Varnier, Biagio Meccariello, Christian Dalle Mura, Georgi Tunjov, Nicolò Contiliano, Matteo Prati, Fabio Maistro, Nicola Rauti and Gabriele Moncini.

✨ Prediction

We feel that Pisa are likely to be able to create a decent number of chances and shots on target.

Conversely, SPAL are also probably going to find it difficult finding the net themselves but we do think that it’s more than likely that they will be converting at least once as well.

We reckon that it will be a pretty comfortable 3-1 winning score for Pisa after 90 minutes.
