“Sometimes when it feels like the world is doing everything to stop you winning, all you need is an away trip to Bari”, said no one ever… However, Pescara fans will be hoping that phrase turns into a reality as they travel down Italy’s east coast to contest this Serie B fixture.
Key Betting Tip: Bari to Win at 2.10 odds (talkSPORT BET) represents excellent value based on the tip provided by our team of in-house tipsters.
Bari Predicted XI: Cerofolini (GK), Nikolaou, Vicari, Meroni, Dorval, Dickmann, Pagano, Verreth, Castrovilli, Braunoder, Moncini

Bari are 16th in Serie B, putting them in a relegation play-off spot. They have 14 points from 14 games (3W, 5D, 6L) and have scored 13 goals but conceded 24. They are three points from Spezia in 19th (in a 20-team league), and five points from Catanzaro in 8th, who occupy the final play-off spot, so realistically, all it will take is a strong run of results for I Galetti to shoot up the table.
Pescara, on the other hand, are 20th and the lowest ranking club in the league. They have 9 points from 14 games, and just ONE win all season. They have scored 18 goals and conceded 29, meaning they have the second-worst defence in the league, only behind Spezia. Yikes.
In their last 10 meetings in the top two divisions of Italy, Bari have 4 wins, Pescara have 2, and there have been 4 draws. It has been 7 years since they last met in Serie B, with both clubs seeing promotion from Serie C in the last few seasons.

Antonio Di Nardo (Pescara): The forward scored the opener in a recent fixture against Catanzaro and is I Delfini’s top scorer this season.
