Cittadella-Spezia and Como-Palermo are valid for the 18th day of the Serie B championship: where to watch them on TV and streaming, probable formations and predictions
After five victories in a row, Cittadella slightly slowed its run in Modena. A draw for Gorini’s team, which, however, it is clear, remains one of the most in-form teams in the entire league. And against D’Angelo’s Spezia, the feeling is that a positive result could come out for the hosts.
Finally in the host’s house the shake-up has been there after the technical change: the Ligurians, who let’s reiterate have a really important roster for the category, have placed two victories in a row that allow them to look with some optimism to the future. In short, on the field there will be two teams that are well both physically and mentally that will try to take a victory. But neither, in the end, should succeed.
Also important in all this is the challenge between Como and Palermo, Fabregas’ last as head coach of the Lombardy team since the waiver will expire: his place will be taken by Roberts, already presented by the club, while waiting for the Spaniard to take the course at Coverciano so he can return to the bench. He will remain, of course, on the technical staff. And Como will want to “give” a victory to their coach. Not easy, because Palermo (which has done better away than at home) is a team built to stay in front and so far has not performed as expected. In the Rosanero household, no missteps are allowed. And Corini knows well that he is gambling, almost every Sunday, the bench.
