HOW THE VENEZIA ARRIVES – Vanoli’s Venezia is fresh from an important victory against Lecco and is in full swing for direct promotion to Serie A. The lagoon players currently occupy third position in the standings, behind Como. To stay on the train that leads to the top flight, Venezia is called to win a victory. Vanoli seems oriented towards deploying a 3-5-2 with Bjarkason favored over Candela for the left flank. In midfield, the Busio-Tessmann-Andersen trio will guarantee solidity and quality, while in attack Pohjanpalo will be supported by Pierini. Thus the coach before the match: “We must give a great performance and give our all to win in front of our fans. Once we get to this point we need to find the means to win them all, we meet a strong team with top-class players.”
HOW THE CREMONESE ARRIVES – Stroppa’s Cremonese is looking for points to make up ground on Como and stay in the running for direct promotion. Fresh from a goalless draw against Catanzaro, the Grigiorossi absolutely must win to close the gap on second place. Stroppa should opt for a 3-5-2 that mirrors that of Venezia. In attack, the pair formed by Vazquez and Coda represents a serious threat to the opposing defense, while in midfield Falletti will act as a midfielder with Zanimacchia on the right. Thus the coach before the match: “Venezia is one of the best teams in the championship in terms of characteristics, an excellent streak of results has led them to have a very good ranking. Individual qualities are important, the idea of the game is also important, and like us they have achieved a top level. They are a very physical team, dangerous in the open field and on dead balls. We will need to win duels with intelligence and be good at set pieces.”
