Our prediction for this Serie B match:
Cittadella kick off the new Serie B campaign with a home game against Pisa on Saturday evening. La Citta defeated the likes of Trento and Luparense in pre-season, and, to make things even better for the fans, they eliminated Serie A side Lecce in their Coppa Italia opener. Spain forward Mamadou Tounkara is pushing for a start after scoring a brace in the Italian Cup triumph, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
Pisa, on the other hand, did well to make it to the Serie B playoffs final last term, but Monza eventually proved to be a big catch for them. Top scorer from last season George Puscas is no longer part of the team, but the club chiefs have signed the likes of Pietro Beruatto, Adrian Rus, and Olimpiu Morutan in the summer transfer window. Anyhow, a close encounter is on the cards at Stadio Pier Cesare Tombolato as Cittadella are tough to beat at home.
