Pescara vs Virtus Entella: Team News and Expert Analysis
The team from "Stadio Adriatico" won the Serie C playoffs last season, earning the right to return to the second division. However, their chances of staying there are slim due to poor results. Still, just when everyone had written them off, they managed to beat Avellino and Palermo, and in the previous round—Bari, along with a couple of draws.
The club from Chiavari was also promoted from Serie C, but directly—as the winner of one of the groups. But at the new level, they look just as weak as their next opponent. February brought another series of defeats. Then they beat both Modena and Südtirol. But against Avellino, they suffered another setback.
The modest newcomer averages 1.27 goals scored per game, but concedes 1.80 on average. The other underdog scores less, at 0.93 goals per game, but also concedes less frequently—1.40 per game.
