✅ Stats before the game. Spezia have won all of their last four league games against Salernitana (between Serie A and B), after having only achieved one success in the previous five (1D, 3L). Salernitana can become the first team against which Spezia finds success in each of the first two Serie A matches – the first leg match ended 2-1 in favor of the Ligurians, with goals from Strelec and Kovalenko. Salernitana have won six of their last eight home games against Spezia in Serie B (2P), although they have lost the most recent (1-2 in July 2020). Salernitana (four points) is the sixth team to have scored less than five points in their first 10 home games in a Serie A season in the era of three points per victory (the last was Benevento in 2017/18) – in the event of a defeat against Spezia it would equal the worst performance ever at the same point in the competition (considering three points from all time): Palermo and Pescara in 2016/17 (four).
👉 Lineup Salernitana (4-3-3): Sepe; Mazzocchi, Fazio, Dragusin, Ranieri; L. Coulibaly, Radovanovic, Kastanos; Verdi, Mousset, Ribery.
👉 Lineup Spezia (4-2-3-1): Provedel; Amian, Erlic, Nikolaou, Reca; Sala, Kiwior; Gyasi, Maggiore, Verde; Manaj.
