Current Form and Tactical Overview
Delfino Pescara is currently experiencing a challenging period in Serie B, struggling to find consistency in their performances. Their recent 2-1 loss to Modena highlighted defensive vulnerabilities, despite Giacomo Olzer's goal. Under the guidance of coach Vincenzo Vivarini, Pescara has shown attacking intent but has failed to convert possession into clear chances consistently. Their home form is particularly concerning, with no wins in their last five home matches, and they have not won against Frosinone at home since 2016.
Frosinone Calcio, on the other hand, is in a more promising position, sitting second in the league standings. Despite a mixed bag of results, they have shown resilience, particularly in away games, where they have a strong record of 5 wins, 2 draws, and only 1 loss this season. Coach Leandro Greco has managed to instill a sense of defensive solidity, as evidenced by their recent unbeaten run of six games and a three-match winning streak away from home.
Head-to-Head Analysis
Historically, Frosinone has had the upper hand in this fixture, winning five of the last thirteen encounters, with six draws and only two losses to Pescara. The goal difference also favors Frosinone, who have scored 17 goals to Pescara's 12 in these meetings. The last meeting ended in a goalless draw, but Frosinone's current form suggests they are more likely to find the net this time around.
Key Players and Tactical Matchups
For Pescara, Matteo Dagasso's creativity will be crucial, as he leads the team with three assists. However, their defensive frailties, having conceded in each of their last ten matches, could be exploited by Frosinone's forwards, Giorgi Kvernadze and Giuseppe Ambrosino, who have been among the top scorers for their team. Frosinone's midfield, led by Ebrima Darboe, will look to control the tempo and supply their forwards with opportunities.
Prediction and Conclusion
Given the current form and historical data, Frosinone Calcio appears to have the edge in this matchup. Their strong away record and recent performances suggest they are well-equipped to secure a victory against a struggling Pescara side. However, Pescara's ability to score late in games, with 39% of their goals coming in the final 15 minutes, indicates they might find the net. Therefore, the prediction is an away win for Frosinone, with both teams likely to score.
