Our prediction for this Serie B match:
Following four consecutive draws, Brescia will look to return to winning ways in the Serie B when they face Spal on Matchday 14. Le Rondinelle have yet to suffer a loss at home this term, which is certainly giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of the visit of Spal. Goalkeeper Luca Lezzerini is banned for the match, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The Gli Spallini, on the other hand, aim to recover from a 2-1 loss to Benevento. Daniele De Rossi’s men have yet to record a win on the road this term, which is probably the main reason why we are going to put our money on Brescia. To make things even worse for the visiting side, they will be without suspended duo Andrea La Matina – Patryk Peda in Sunday’s encounter.

Alberto Pomini is a 185-cm-tall goalkeeper who played for Verona during his youth career. In 2001 he moved to San Marino and he made 17 league appearances for the club in the Serie C2.

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.
