Our prediction for this Serie B match:
Stadio Paolo Mazza will host Sunday’s football game between Spal and Pisa, the two teams with entirely different ambitions in the remainder of the season. Spal aim to secure yet another Serie B survival, while Pisa are eyeing automatic promotion to the Serie A. The Gli Spallini did well to hold Benevento to a 1-1 draw at the weekend, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry in Sunday’s clash.
Head coach Roberto Venturato should have a full squad to choose from. The league leaders, on the other hand, aim to make amends for a 3-1 loss to Frosinone. Pisa are on a three-game winning run on the road, which is probably the main reason why we are tempted to put our money on the Nerazzurri. Keep in mind, though, that defender Pietro Beruatto is suspended for the visiting team.
Highlighted Player (Alberto Pomini):
Alberto Pomini is a 185-cm-tall goalkeeper who played for Verona during his youth career. In 2001 he moved to San Marino and he made 17 league appearances for the club in the Serie C2. At the end of the season he signed a deal with Bellaria and after playing 20 games for the club, he moved to Sassuolo in 2004.
Pomini played for the Neroverdi in the Serie C2 back then, but the club have been making progress year by year. Sassuolo are currently playing in the Italian top flight, but it has to be noted that Pomini did not see any game action in the 2015/2016 Serie A campaign. The Italian goalkeeper wore No. 17 on his shirt between 2008 and 2012, but following Davide Bassi’s departure he received number 1 shirt.
Alberto Pomini was born in Isola della Scala, Italy on 17 March, 1981. He has a contract with Sassuolo which expires at the end of the 2016/2017 Serie A campaign. His agent is Danilo Caravello.
