Salernitana vs Spezia Predictions

• Spezia have lost all five of their away games in Serie A this season.
• Luca Gotti’s team are the only side in the division without a point or a goal on the road this campaign.
• Salernitana have taken seven points from their last four home league games.

Italy’s worst travellers go on the road again

Although Luca Gotti’s Spezia sit four points above the dreaded dotted line in Serie A, they do so despite their efforts on the road, having lost all five of their away league games without scoring this season. The Aquilotti are on their travels once again on Saturday, and opponents Salernitana will be confident of taking advantage of their troubles.

Indeed, Spezia’s away record contrasts sharply with their home results this season; they have yet to lose at home in five games, but are yet to even find the net on their travels, conceding 12 goals in five outings and only creating 2.8 expected goals (xG).  Meanwhile, Gotti’s men are bottom of Serie A’s rankings for xG (7.6) and shots on target (20) this season – averaging just two attempts on goal per match this campaign.

Salernitana have lost three of their last four games, but two of those reverses came on the road at Inter Milan and Sassuolo. Davide Nicola’s men have won two of their last four home games, losing just once in that run and scoring nine goals. Meanwhile, no bottom-half team has outscored Salernitana in Serie A this term (12 goals) and they should have enough about them to trouble Spezia.

Visitors’ woes could continue

Given Spezia’s dreadful away form, backing Salernitana to claim what would be their fifth home win in their last 10 home games looks prudent.

Meanwhile, a routine 2-0 win for the hosts appears a strong correct score prediction, with Spezia struggling to create chances this campaign.
