Our prediction for this Serie B match:
All eyes will be on Stadio Ciro Vigorito when Benevento and Cremonese face each other in the Serie B derby. Benevento are on a three-game winning run, and they must be high on spirits ahead of the visit of Cremonese. Even though all Gabriele Moncini, Mattia Viviani, and Salvatore Elia should miss out with injuries, we predict that the hosts are going to grab something from the midweek clash.
The Grigiorossi, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-1 win over Ternana. Since both Benevento and Cremonese are likely to go for a win in Tuesday’s clash, both teams to score betting option should be considered. Fabio Pecchia is unlikely to make changes to the team that faced Ternana. In the first half of the season the two sides played out a 1-1 draw, and we predict that the history is going to repeat itself.
Highlighted Player (Gianluca Lapadula):
Gianluca Lapadula, also known as Lapagol, due to his goalscoring abilities, was born in Turin and started his career at Juventus youth team, but was released because he wasn’t doing well in his studies. After the departure with Juventus, Lapadula perfected his goalscoring skills in lower Italian leagues and even spent one year in NK Gorica, Slovenia.
During his spell in Ravenna, he managed to finish the season 2012/13 as the top scorer in the group, netting 24 goals in the process. For a long period of time, the 28-year-old was Parma’s player, but he went on loans often, and, after Parma went bankrupt, Lapagol moved to Pescara. With 30 goals in 43 appearances, the striker caught the eye of Serie A giant Milan. He netted his first goal for the Rossoneri only three minutes after he came on as a substitute.
The following season Lapagol became the striker of Genoa. Even though he was called to play for Peru, the Genoa hitman decided to represent Italy, getting his first call to the senior squad in November 2016. However, he never made an official appearance for Italy, since he only played an unofficial friendly against San Marino, when he scored a hat-trick.
