Our prediction for this Serie B match:
Buoyed by a hard-fought 1-0 win over FeralpiSalo, Ascoli will be looking to provide fans with another cause for celebration when they take on Brescia on Tuesday afternoon. Ascoli did well to put an end to their three-game winless run, but they need to keep on improving their game if they are to avoid relegation to Serie C. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team ahead of the midweek game.
Le Rondinelle, on the other hand, failed to win the previous three league matches. As both Ascoli and Brescia will go for a win in the Stadio Cino e Lillo Del Duca showdown, we are tempted to place our bets on both teams to score. As for the visiting side, midfielder Fabrizio Paghera serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards, while Michele Avella is pushing for a recall to the starting XI.
Highlighted Team (Brescia):
Hosting their rivals at Stadio Mario Rigamonti, the stadium with the capacity of 16,743, Brescia are Italian team founded back in 1911 under the name of Brescia Football Club. Le Rondinelle are well known for their blue and white shirts, but white is dominant colour in their away kit.
Atalanta are considered one of the club’s fiercest rivals, with the two teams facing each other in the Derby of Lombardy. The Stadio Mario Rigamonti outfit have rivalries with the likes of Inter, Hellas Verona and Cremonese as well. Roberto Baggio, who has 56 caps with the Italy national football team, is considered the most famous footballer who played for Brescia.
Robi scored 45 goals in 95 appearances in the Serie A for le Rondinelle. It has to be noted that the likes of Andrea Pirlo, Gheorge Hagi, Pep Guardiola, Luca Toni, Luigi Di Biagio and Dario Hubner were part of Brescia in the past as well. However, Mario Rigamonti is the club’s biggest legend as he died in the Superga air disaster back in 1949.
