FC Südtirol wants to end the away curse in Savona

“Apart from our own mistakes, we often lacked the necessary bit of luck in the last few games. We started this season with the goal of winning the championship and taking part in the playoffs. This goal is still in sight and that is why we must not think about the defeats now, but rather achieve a certain continuity in the results. The score is always settled at the end anyway,” says Alessandro Campo, the league’s second-best goalscorer with eight goals.

The match in Savona is the second away game in a row for FC Südtirol; last Sunday the FCS was a guest in Carrara, where they lost 1-2. For FC Südtirol this was their fourth defeat in their fifth away game. The Rastelli team has only won one point on foreign soil so far, a draw in Portogruaro against Venezia.

Rastelli will be without suspended midfielder Furlan on Sunday, while Campo may miss out due to a muscle injury. In defense, Bassoli, Kiem and Cappelletti are fighting for the two available regular positions in the center. In midfield, Branca will most likely take the place of the suspended Furlan and up front Corazza, Dell'Agnello and someone between Campo and Turchetta will line up.

Ex-FCS striker Virdis spreads fear and terror

Their opponents Savona, in third place in the table, suffered a 0-4 defeat against Vicenza Calcio last Sunday, their first defeat after five games in which they remained in the top third of the table with three wins and two draws could.

Savona finds itself in Italy's third division for the first time ever, after the Ligurian team bounced between Serie D and Serie C40 for over 2 years. Last year, Savona was promoted directly to the 1st division due to second place. This is mainly because of their top scorer Francesco Virdis, who scored 24 goals in 31 games last year alone. This year he has already reached quota six. The Sardinian played for the White Reds in the 2010/11 season without leaving a lasting impression. The now 28-year-old has made eleven appearances and only one goal. The team's coach is Corda, who has to sit in the stands on Sunday. Goalkeeper Aresti and attacking midfielder De Martis will also be missing. Both are blocked.

The expected lineups:

Savona (4-4-2): Boerchio; Carta, Marconi, Maccarone, Giuliatto; Marras, Gentile, Agazzi, Cattaneo; Cesarini, Virdis. Substitutes: Capello, Spirito, Puccio, Rudi, Esposito, Grandolfo, Serao. Trainer: Ninni Corda

FC South Tyrol (4-3-3) : Micai; Iacoponi, Cappelletti (Kiem), Bassoli, Martin; Vassallo, Pederzoli, Branca; Turchetta (Campo), Dell'Agnello, Corazza. Replacements: Tonozzi, Kiem (Cappelletti), Tagliani, Bastone, Fink, Campo (Turchetta), Ekuban. Coach: Claudio Rastelli

Schiedsrichter : Niccolò Pagliardini from Arezzo (Rossini-Zancanaro)
