Spezia and Carrarese will face each other in the 6th day of the Serie B field today at 15:00. The Picco stadium, for the occasion, is ready to transform into a cauldron with over 10 thousand spectators expected in the stands. The derby, in fact, has been missing from the cadet league for 77 years and the match is obviously very heartfelt by both sets of fans. In La Spezia there will be no Tuscan ultras who will not follow the team away in protest against the fan card, but who still wanted to meet the team and coach after yesterday afternoon’s training to get them pumped up for the match. The match will be directed by referee Rapuano, assisted by assistants Berti and Zingarelli and by IV Uomo Mazzoni. Var and Avar have been entrusted to Camplone and Pagnotta respectively. The match will be broadcast live for free on DAZN.
HOW SPEZIA ARRIVES – The Bianconeri, currently fourth in the standings with 9 points, are undefeated so far in this championship, together with the leaders Pisa. In the derby against Carrarese, Mister D’Angelo’s boys will try to get their third home win that would allow them to collect three very precious points to stay in touch with the top positions. The feeling is that there is a desire for redemption after the disappointment of the 1-1 draw at Cremonese on the last day. What worries the Bianconeri coach most is the defense that has always conceded at least one goal so far.
HOW CARRARESE ARRIVES – The Tuscans, newly promoted to Serie B, occupy the penultimate place in the standings ahead of Frosinone, with a haul of just 3 points earned in 5 matchdays: the only success dates back to the home match against Sudtirol on matchday 3. The derby could be the right opportunity to obtain the first away win of the season and turn the championship around. The Giallocelesti have so far shown a lot of difficulty both in finding the way to goal and in securing the defense: in fact, they have only scored 4 goals and conceded 8. Coach Calabro has announced that Cavion, who has suffered a fracture to his right toe, and Falco, who is still trying to get back into top condition, will not take part in the trip to La Spezia. Giovane and Oliana have been called up.
