Prediction: 1-2
Crotone
Alessandria play host to Crotone at their Stadio Giuseppe Moccagatta in what is expected to be a close Serie B encounter. Alessandria made a slow start to the season, with the team collecting only four points in total from possible 24. L’Orso failed to impress in a 2-0 loss at Como, and, no doubt, head coach Moreno Longo should opt to make changes to the starting XI. All Kolaj, Orlando, and Ba are out of contention with injuries for the hosts.
The Rossoblu, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-1 win over Pisa. Crotone are desperate to escape the relegation zone, and they will not have a better chance than this to do so. Even though midfielder Nahuel Estevez limped off with injury in the last league match, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the visitors as Alessandria do not seem to be competitive at this level.
