Spezia v Catanzaro : Serie B match betting preview, prediction and odds

Sun 25th May, 18:30 BST, Dino Manuzzi, Cesena

Home advantage can be vital in the Serie B, and Luca D'Angelo’s Spezia will have the luxury of it on Sunday evening. Fabio Caserta’s Catanzaro are their visitors to the Dino Manuzzi. For every Serie B match, KickOff dives into the stats for all of the biggest markets. Key stats, including head to head (H2H) results, are then brought forward alongside odds from leading bookmakers.


Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

Neither Spezia or Catanzaro are in a rich vein of form that would leave us feeling very confident in tipping a match winner, so instead we've gone for over 1.5 goals. The stats tell us that both have a track record in this market, both individually and when facing one another head-to-head. Our predictive algorithm suggests there's a 77% chance of 2 goals or more.
