Our prediction for this Serie B match:
Stadio Paolo Mazza will host Saturday’s Serie B game between Spal and Bari, the two sides who sit in the opposite halves of the table. Spal are eager to secure the Serie B survival, while Bari are eyeing promotion to the Italian top flight. The Gli Spalini will be without midfielder Fabio Maistro, who is sidelined through suspension, while Alessandro Murgia is pushing for a start.
Meanwhile, the visitors suffered a dip in form, with the team losing to both Palermo and Perugia in the last two league matches, and seeing that Spal are desperate to escape the danger zone, home win should be considered. Walid Cheddira is back from suspension, while there are no fresh injury worries in the away side. In their last meeting at Stadio Paolo Mazza the hosts emerged triumphant, and we predict that history is going to repeat itself.
