Crotone Preview – Can Crotone close in on promotion?
2nd placed Crotone will be eyeing off another three points as they prepare for this upcoming clash against Salernitana on Friday night at their Stadio Ezio Scida, having put together a decent looking 10-match sequence without a defeat in Serie B, an impressive run of form which has helped them into one of the automatic promotion spots,
Seven wins from these previous 10 matches places Crotone in a strong position to continue their success here, especially as the hosts have won five of their last six matches at home with victories over Cremonese, Pescara, Pisa, Benevento and Pordenone – with four of these five wins also being to nil.
Indeed, Crotone have lost just once in their previous 11 matches at home amidst an overall record which stands at an impressive looking 11-4-2 31/13, while the bigger picture shows us that Crotone have lost just two of their last 23 matches on home turf, so they look to be a formidable unit ahead of this clash.
Salernitana Preview – Can Salernitana hang onto play-off spot?
7th placed Salernitana have just about managed to hold onto their top eight spot for the time being in Serie B thanks to recent wins against Juve Stabia and Cittadella in 2-1 and 4-1 wins respectively, but they know they must continue to pick up points in order to fend off the chasing pack behind them.
This may well be easier said than done though as Salernitana have managed to record just the two wins from their last seven matches overall, which incidentally were both registered on home turf at their Stadio Arechi, while results away from home continue to be a major concern for manager, Giampiero Ventura, who has witnessed just one win from their last 14 matches on their travels.
This is indeed a poor return on the road for a side who are challenging for a place in the play-offs and having also lost their last five away matches on the trot, this doesn’t bode well for this upcoming trip to face in-form Crotone.
