Our prediction for this Serie B match:
Reggina and Frosinone take on each other at Stadio Oreste Granillo in a highly-anticipated Serie B game. Reggina proved their worth in a 2-0 win over Brescia, and a victory over Frosinone could see them climb to top position in the standings. A man to watch in the home team will be Luigi Canotto, who managed to find the net in three of the last four league matches.
There are no fresh selection worries in the home team ahead of the midweek clash. The Canarini, on the other hand, saved one point from the Sudtirol clash thanks to Ilario Monterisi’s late goal, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against Reggina, who have turned their Stadio Oreste Granillo into a real fortress. As for the visiting side, Lhassine Kone is a major doubt, and he will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.

Highlighted Team (Frosinone):
Back in 1912 Frosinone were founded as Unione Sportiva Frusinate and it has to be noted that the colors of the team were originally red and blue. They were later changed to the current yellow and blue and the Canarini have been wearing those kits ever since. Frosinone made their first ever appearance in the Serie A in the 2015/2016 season, but they failed to secure the promotion.
The Canarini finished the season in 19th place in the standings, eight points behind Udinese, who eventually avoided relegation to Serie B. However, two years later Frosinone returned to the Italian top flight as they defeated Palermo 3-2 on aggregate in the play-offs final.
The club play their home games at Stadio Benito Stirpe, the stadium that was opened in 2017. The venue can hold 16,227 spectators and it is owned by the Municipality of Frosinone. The construction cost €20 million.
