Verona - Cittadela
Tip:1
Odd:1.65
FT : ??
The Yellow-Blues won only one point from their visit at "Stadio Dino Manuzzi" in the last round (A.C. Cesena - Hellas Verona 0-0 on 12.04.2013) and this, added to the fact, that Livorno Calcio won all three points at "Stadio Franco Ossola" on Saturday (A.S. Varese 1910 - Livorno Calcio 1-3 on 13.04.2013), puts the home team in a very delicate position.There are two good news for Andrea Mandorlini and his players in this moment.First - The Yellow-Blues have four games at "Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi" and only two visits until the end of the campaign in Serie B, as one of these two visits is at "Stadio Cino e Lillo Del Duca" against a mediocre team like Ascoli Calcio 1898 (Ascoli Calcio 1898 - Hellas Verona on 27.04.2013).Livorno Calcio, on the other hand, have a slightly difficult schedule until the end of the campaign in this league, with games against Novara Calcio (Livorno Calcio - Novara Calcio on 17.04.2013), Ternana Calcio (Ternana Calcio - Livorno Calcio on 04.05.2013), Brescia Calcio (Livorno Calcio - Brescia Calcio on 11.05.2013) and U.S. Sassuolo (U.S. Sassuolo - Livorno Calcio on 18.05.2013).The second good news for Andrea Mandorlini is, that he can count on almost a full squad for this home game against A.S. Cittadella, as Vangelis Moras (defender) is the only important player, who is unavailable due to injury.The Yellow-Blues showed good football over the last month (3-3-0 9-6) and managed to win each of their last two games at "Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi" (Hellas Verona - F.C. Crotone 3-2 on 24.03.2013 ; Hellas Verona - Ternana Calcio 2-1 on 06.04.2013).In fact, the hosts own the second best home record in Serie B until this moment (11-4-2 26-12) and if they manage to overcome the pressure, I doubt, that they will face big problems to win all three points from this clash.The visitors, on the other hand, managed to win four points from their last two games (Vicenza Calcio - A.S. Cittadella 1-2 on 06.04.2013 ; A.S. Cittadella - Calcio Padova 3-3 on 13.04.2013), but still the distance between them and the teams in the relegation zone is only two points.Claudio Foscarini's team shows good efficiency in attack recently, as The Dark-Reds have scored a total of nine goals in their last four games (2.25 goals per game), but in the same time, the visitors have conceded a total of 12 goals in those four encounters (3.00 goals per game) and at least two goals in four of their last six visits (1-3-2 9-10).Hellas Verona is a team with solid defence (29 goals in 36 games / 0.80 goals per game) and I doubt, that The Dark-Reds will have the same success in attack at "Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi", as in their previous few games.On the other hand, with players like Daniele Cacia (striker), Juanito Gomez (striker), Alessandro Sgrigna (striker), Jorginho (winger) and Raphael Martinho (midfielder) up front, I expect, that the hosts will manage to create enough good scoring opportunities against the second weakest defence in Serie B this season.Edoardo Gorini (defender), Massimiliano Busellato (midfielder), Raffaele Perna (striker) and Nicolao Dumitru (striker) will miss the trip to Verona for the away team.The Dark-Reds won 2-1 at "Stadio Pier Cesare Tombolato" earlier this season (A.S. Cittadella - Hellas Verona 2-1 on 12.12.2012), but now I expect, that The Yellow-Blues will take a revenge
