Our prediction for this Serie B match:
Brescia will be looking to kickstart the new Serie B campaign in style when they face Cosenza on Sunday afternoon. Le Rondinelle have been awarded a place in the Serie B despite being relegated last season and, no doubt, they are eager to make amends for the unsuccessful 2023/2024 campaign. Summer signing Gabriele Moncini is widely expected to make his Brescia debut against Cosenza.
The visitors, on the other hand, have been having their ups and downs at the start of the season, with the team beating Ascoli, losing to Modena, while sharing the spoils with Venezia. Anyhow, a close encounter is on the cards at Stadio Mario Rigamonti as both sides are likely to adopt a cautious approach. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of the trip to Lombardy, but midfielder Christian D’Urso should be recalled 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.
