Brescia tried to maintain a position at the top of the standings in Serie B match day 24 this weekend. They played the role of host to face Crotone at the Stadio Mario Rigamonti on Saturday (23/2) and determined to win.
They just passed a tough test against Palermo who became the closest competitor on the standings, and were quite satisfied with a 1-1 draw thanks to Luca Tremolada’s late goal on 92 minutes. The reason was that it was the only kick that they produced during their appearance at Renzo Barbera.
The draw also ensured Brescia remained at the top even with a difference of 1 point. After all, they also became unbeaten this month after starting the campaign with a 1-5 party at Pescara headquarters, then winning 3-1 over Carpi on the Rigamonti.
This time schedule is more detrimental to Crotone, which must appear until Tuesday (2/19). In fact, they lost 0-2 at the time despite playing at home. This disaster left Crotone yet to enjoy victory throughout February after the opening 2 games only produced a 1-1 draw against Livorno and Verona.
Crotone also threatened to replace Carpi’s position at the bottom of the standings by 1 point. They reap the 2-2 draw against Brescia in the first half of the season due to 1 red card, while 2 times to Rigamonti lost 2-1 and 3-0 with the same cause.
Our Prediction: Over 2.5
Odds: 1.70
