Our prediction for this Serie B match:
After surviving Spezia in their Coppa Italia opener, Salernitana will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Cittadella in the Serie B round 1. I Granata are eyeing a quick return to the Italian top flight, but they are on a very difficult quest. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Senegal forward Boulaye Dia, who scored a brace in the Italian Cup win, while summer signing Yayah Kallon is pushing for a start.
La Citta, meanwhile, failed to spoil Sassuolo’s party at Mapei Stadium – Citta del Tricolore in their Italian Cup opener. The visitors are eager to grab something from Saturday’s clash, but seeing that Salernitana are a real force to be reckoned with at home, home win should be considered. Summer signing Simone Rabbi is widely expected to make his Serie B derby with Cittadella this weekend.
