Bari-SudTirol is a match valid for the return leg of the Serie B playoff semi-finals and is played on Friday at 20:30: odds, predictions, TV and streaming.
Linear. Solid. No frills. This is how SudTirol managed first to beat Reggina and gain access to the semi-finals for Serie A, and then to put their noses to the grindstone in the first leg against Bari. A one-nil victory that obviously gives Bisoli’s troop the favour of prediction. Even if there will be 40,000 people in Puglia to push Mignani’s troops.
Friday’s match will be the first away game the Bolzano side will play in this postseason, one that will decide the season. One will go through to the final, the other will say goodbye to the parade and make a date for next year. Now, the goal arrived beyond the 90th minute has certainly put SudTirol in the best condition, seeing what their characteristics are, to face the match. What will be staged at the San Nicola will be a match we all have in mind. A Bari that will pitch its tents in the visitors’ half of the field and that will look for the right solution, against a team that will lower and that will try to keep the lines tight. Something that has succeeded several times this season and then go on the counter-attack. In short, a match that you can easily imagine beforehand.
So we don’t expect all this spectacle. But we do expect an edgy match, one of those that can easily be forgotten but will inevitably bring immense joy to one team and enormous disappointment to the other. And the team that should ultimately be the disappointed one, according to our prediction, is the visiting team. And we also explain why.
In addition to the momentum of the San Nicola, as mentioned, from a technical point of view the hosts have the qualities they need to overturn the 1-0 first leg. Should Bari also manage to find the goal in the first half of the match, things will go downhill. And from then on, the goal could be found without major problems. In short, we give the Pugliese as favourites.
The Prediction
Little show and great tension. That will be the refrain of the match. With Bari, however, who could also pull off the big one, the one almost of a lifetime, and give themselves the final against one of Cagliari or Parma. Yes, SudTirol should close at the San Nicola their journey that will remain, in any case, stupendous.
