Our prediction for this Serie B match:
Brescia will be aiming to build on a 2-1 win over Cosenza when they take on Pisa in the Serie B round 32. Le Rondinelle are determined to book their spot in the playoffs, but Saturday’s game will be anything but a walk in the park for the home side. Midfielder Massimo Bertagnoli serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards, while goalkeeper Lorenzo Andrenacci remain in the treatment room.
The Nerazzurri, on the other hand, aim to build on a thrilling 4-3 win over Palermo. Pisa and Brescia, though, seem to be evenly matched at the moment and we predict that they are going to share the spoils in Saturday’s encounter. As for the visitors, Tommaso Barbieri misses out through suspension, while fellow midfielder Andrea Barberis remains in the recovery room. In the first half of the season the two teams played out a 1-1 draw.
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.
