Prediction: 1-1
Spezia
Stadio San Vito-Luigi Marulla will host Wednesday’s Serie B game between Cosenza and Spezia. The Rossoblu kicked off the new Serie B campaign with a 1-0 win over Cremonese, but Mantova proved to be a big catch for them at the weekend. Cosenza obviously produce much better showings at home than on the travels and, as a result, the bookies see them as favourites to win the midweek clash. Defender Bright Gyamfi remains doubtful, but there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The Bianconeri, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-1 win over Frosinone. As Spezia have been scoring goals for fun at the start of the season, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Luca D’Angelo is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated the Canarini at the weekend.
Highlighted Team (Spezia):
Spezia is a professional Italian club based in Spezia, Liguria. The Bianconeri secured promotion to the Serie A in the 2019/20 season, with the team beating Frosinone in the Serie B playoffs final. Spezia are well known for their black and white home jerseys, and black is the dominant colour of their away kit.
The club’s home ground Stadio Alberto Picco has the capacity of 10,336 people. The venue was opened back in 1919, with architect Gregotti being in charge of the project. In 2002 the club chiefs decided to reach an agreement with Inter which saw Spezia become Inter’s feeder club.
As a result, the likes of Goran Pandev, Aco Stojkov, and Alex Cordaz joined the Bianconeri in the first season. Spezia then suffered a bankruptcy, but in 2008 they were re-founded. In the 2020/21 season the Bianconeri will compete in the Italian elite division for the first time ever.
