Tobias Gourlay’s in Italy as Cittadella and Verona go head-to-head for the final place in next season’s Serie A
Cittadella v Verona
Thursday 20:00
In Ukraine yesterday afternoon, Arsenal Kyiv and Karpaty Lviv served up three match goals within just 20 minutes of kick-off at the Knyazha Arena. Karpaty eventually won 3-2 to land our goals bet with something to spare.
We’re in Italy today for the first leg of the Serie B playoff between Cittadella and Verona. The winner of the tie will go up to Serie A for next season.
Cittadella, who finished the regular season in seventh, are favourites to win at home tonight, but they might need a couple of goals or more to do so. The hosts have managed just two clean sheets from 17 league and playoff games at Stadio Pier Cesare Tombolato since September. At the other end, they have scored themselves in 14/17, notching at least twice in 11/17.
Visitors Verona, who finished the regular season one point ahead of their hosts, have conceded in 15/18 league and playoff away matches. At the other end, the Mastiffs have scored in 7/9 on the road and we like the odds-against price on both teams finding the back of the net tonight.
