Italian Serie A
2010-04-17 - Chievo vs Livorno
A Sports Betting Pick by Cruiser
Analysis:For the visitors Livorno, a failure to win this match may seem them be relegated after this match. Last week’s 2-0 home defeat to Udinese left them nine points away from safety.
However, Coach Gennaro Ruotolo still believe there are 15 points to fight for and his side is not doomed yet. As for the hom e side Chievo, they are not safe from the threat of relegation yet. However if they get all three points here than they would be in the comfort zone.
Even though Chievo have picked up only three points from the last seven rounds, they have failed to win since beating Cagliari on 28th February. Chievo were leading Palermo last weekend before losing 3-1. They welcome back Sergio Pellissier, Luca Rigoni and Santiago Morero from suspension, although Luca Ariatti is now suspended. Veteran winger Luciano be fit in time for this match.
Livorbo have not much options for this clash, as Mozart and Claudio Bellucci are out suspended. Leonardo Miglionico, Nelson Rivas, Mirko Pieri, Diniz and Rubinho are all sidelined, while Ruotolo could again choose to drop talismanic captain Cristiano Lucarelli in favour of Francesco Tavano and Tomas Danilevicius upfront. Meanwhile Andrea Esposito is likely to step back into defence following his injury.
For the record, this fixture has only ever been played three times in Serie A, all ending with Chievo victories. In fact, including both home and away ties, Chievo have won six and drawn once by scoring 11 goals to three conceded.
Take Chievo to win here and give the 1 1/4 ball here.
Cheers and good luck,
