Ascoli play host to visiting opposition side Venezia at Stadio Cino e Lillo Del Duca in the Serie B clash on Sunday, and our team has the latest predicted line ups and news on player availability.
Ascoli will be looking to improve on their last outing here after a 2-1 Serie B loss in their previous game against Spezia. In our view, Bianconeri look set to make use of the 3-5-2 formation for this game, handing starts to Emiliano Viviano, Brian Bayeye, Giuseppe Bellusci, Valerio Mantovani, Samuel Giovane, Francesco Di Tacchio, Fabrizio Caligara, Patrizio Masini, Karim Zedadka, Pablo Rodríguez and Jeremiah Streng.
Luka Bogdan, Riccardo Gagliolo, Erdis Kraja and Pedro Mendes won’t be playing for Ascoli gaffer Massimo Carrera.
How Ascoli might line up to play Venezia
Since a loss in their previous game against Reggiana in Serie B action, Venezia will be aiming to make amends here. We’re of the thinking that Arancioneroverdi seem likely to elect for a 3-5-2 system, settling for Jesse Joronen, Giorgio Altare, Jay Idzes, Marin Sverko, Antonio Candela, Gianluca Busio, Tanner Tessmann, M. Egill Ellertsson, Francesco Zampano, Joel Pohjanpalo and Nicholas Pierini.
With a fully healthy squad available for selection, Venezia manager Paolo Vanoli has no fitness worries whatsoever ahead of this game.
