On Easter Monday: FC Südtirol on the hunt for points

Serie B is entering its decisive phase: With five rounds remaining, there's still no definite relegation spot. FC Südtirol also has a lot to worry about, even though they're currently out of the relegation or play-off spots. On Easter Monday, Bari will host the Drusus Stadium—a golden opportunity for FCS.

FC Südtirol fans have fond memories of their encounters with Bari: Almost a year ago, the world was completely upside down. FCS sealed their relegation on May 1, while the team from southern Italy finished the season in a play-off spot. There, they beat Ternana and were thus able to remain in Serie B.

Now, a year later, the world is a completely different place. While Bari are sitting solidly in eighth place (and thus in a playoff spot), FC Südtirol is in the midst of a relegation battle. The White and Reds still have everything in their own hands, but on Easter Monday, the motto is: A win is essential!

Victory is urgently needed

In the first half of the season, they beat Bari 1-0, and in the second half of last season, the White and Reds also celebrated a 1-0 victory against the team from southern Italy. In the last eight head-to-head meetings, FCS celebrated four wins, Bari won three, and there was one draw. Curiously, all seven victorious matches ended by a single goal difference – six of those were 1-0, one 2-1.
