Our prediction for this Serie B match:
Spal and Sudtirol, the two teams who defeated Cosenza (5-0) and Sudtirol (1-0) respectively at the weekend, face each other at Stadio Paolo Mazza in the Serie B round 11. The Gli Spalini did well to put an end to their five-game winless run, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence, but they do not want to stop now. Marco Varnier should miss out with injury, but there are no other selection worries in the home team.
Pierpaolo Bisoli’s troops, on the other hand, proved their worth in back-to-back wins over Perugia and Parma. Sudtirol are eager to stay in the playoffs berth, and seeing that they will go for a win as well, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Tomasso D’Orazio limped off with injury in the last league match, with fellow defender Matteo Rover likely to replace him in the starting XI.
Highlighted Player (Alberto Pomini):
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.

The Italian goalkeeper wore No. 17 on his shirt between 2008 and 2012, but following Davide Bassi’s departure he received number 1 shirt.
