Avellino-Pescara is a match valid for the 20th day of Serie C and is played on Friday at 17:30: live TV, likely formations, predictions.
Two of the most emblazoned teams in this Serie C round of the Serie C, Avellino and Pescara, will battle it out for heavy points on the first day of the return leg, the last before the Christmas break. Both started with the aim of trying to return to Serie C, but so far they have not been very exciting, especially the Abruzzesi.
Pescara have 38 points at the halfway mark, a haul in some respects worthy of note, but unfortunately there are those who are doing much better. The two Calabrian teams, for example: first and foremost the crushing Catanzaro, who have shot up to 51 points, or Crotone, the only one that is somehow trying to prevent the Giallorossi from closing the gap between first and second place, closing the accounts for direct promotion well in advance. Alberto Colombo’s biancazzurri have to be content with third place for the moment, but if they want to try and threaten the leadership of Vivarini’s Aquile, they will have to find the continuity that has always been lacking until now.
Especially in the last period, in which Pescara have collected four defeats in five matches. After the success in Monopoli, the feeling was that the worst was over. And yet last Sunday Brosco and his team-mates had to deal with another false step, losing 0-1 against Picerno in front of their own public.
Avellino have only 24 points and are momentarily out of the playoff zone due to a complicated start, which has forced the club to change technical guidance. With Massimo Rastelli on the bench, however, things are much better. And the Irpini arrive at this challenge on a wave of enthusiasm for the positive streak that has been going on for five rounds.

The Prediction
An important test for both: Avellino to understand if the direction taken is really the right one; Pescara instead to get out of a crisis that is starting to worry. In short, a balanced match is looming and it would not be a surprise if it ended in a draw. It will not be easy for the Abruzzesi to pierce the Irpina defence, which has conceded just one goal in the last five days. The total goals should be less than four.
The likely line-up for Avellino v Pescara
- AVELLINO (4-3-3): Pane; Rizzo, Moretti, Auriletto, Tito; Casarini, Matera, Maisto; Russo, Gambale, Trotta.
- PESCARA (4-3-2-1): Sommariva; Cancellotti, Brosco, Boben, Milani; Mora, Aloi, Gyabuaa; Vergani, Cuppone; Desogus.
POSSIBLE RESULT: 1-1
