Brescia vs Cosenza Match Analysis & Prediction
01/06/2023 9:30 pm
Brescia’s Serie B status is at stake when they play host to Cosenza in Thursday’s relegation playoff final at Stadio Mario Rigamonti.
The Little Swallows were beaten 1-0 in the reverse fixture in Calabria on May 25, and they face demotion to the third tier if they do not reverse the deficit.
Having finished 16 in Serie B, Daniele Gastaldello was aware of the challenge facing him over both meetings with Cosenza, who finished the regular season in 17th place.
Last week’s defeat at Cosenza means the new manager’s run now reads just three wins in 15, and the least number that gives Brescia a chance at survival is a fourth victory.
Two of the club’s wins under Gastaldello have been at the Rigamonti, giving fans hope even if the broader results under the man in charge have been average.
However, four of the last meeting between the clubs at Brescia have been victories for the hosts, giving the Little Swallows the psychological edge.
Cosenza are aware of their poor run at Thursday’s opponents, even though they landed the first punch after a 1-0 victory over the side they visit.
With two wins on the road all season, William Viali’s side have their work cut out to get a result at Brescia due to statistically having the competition’s worst away record.
Brescia vs. Cosenza Head to head
In the 13 previous meetings between these two teams, Brescia have claimed six victories while Cosenza have won two, and they have drawn in five. Cosenza have scored 11 goals and conceded 19 in the process.
