📋 Team News: Spezia

Duccio Degli Innocenti (Achilles tendon rupture) and Mouhamadou Sarr (Broken arm) are not available for Spezia manager Luca D'Angelo.

In our view, Spezia will possibly make use of the 3-5-2 system for this one and select Stefano Gori, Ales Matějů, Petko Hristov, P. Wisniewski, Salvatore Elia, Ádám Nagy, Salvatore Esposito, Filippo Bandinelli, Giuseppe Aurelio, F. Pio Esposito and Gianluca Lapadula.

ℹ️ Team News: Salernitana

From our viewpoint, I granata appear most likely to utilise a 3-4-2-1 formation, settling for Oliver Christensen, Fabio Ruggeri, Gianmarco Ferrari, Luka Lochoshvili, Paolo Ghiglione, Andrés Tello, Lorenzo Amatucci, Tommaso Corazza, Daniele Verde, Roberto Soriano and Alberto Cerri.

🧠 Prediction

In this match, Salernitana have enough to score against this Spezia lineup, although it is unlikely to be enough to avoid a loss.

We’re going for a very close game with a 2-1 victory for Spezia when all is said and done.
