Brescia vs Cittadella | All you need to know.
On December 18, 2021 by Jake IovineOne hard game to the other: Cittadella find themselves in a tough situation as 2021 comes to a close. The history will favor them in Lombardy.
With three games remaining in the year, Cittadella are on the road again, this time in Lombardy. With two favorable fixtures on paper after Christmas, Brescia remain as the last hard challenge for the Granata for 2021.
Since the acquisition of Pippo inzaghi last summer, Brescia are continuing their charge up the Serie B table. Despite losing their last two matches at home, I Biancazzurri sit in 2nd, clinging onto the last automatic promotion slot.
With the halfway point in the season coming, the pressure does not subside for any team. A tight race for playoffs is happening now, and Brescia cannot afford to drop more points.
Most of the points dropped have came at the Rigamonti. Brescia have only claimed a third of their 33 points at home, tallying three wins in eight home matches. Three straight losses at home would bring question marks to Pippo Inzaghi’s team.
Question marks have not been an issue for Cittadella when facing Brescia. Citta have not lost to I Biancazzurri in the last seven matches, dating all the way back to 2017. But between these two clubs, both of them have shared some thrilling matches in the past.
In fact, in February of this year, despite being 3-0 down at half, Cittadella crawled their way back to gain a valuable point at the Rigamonti. Fast forward a few months later, both sides met in the first round of the promotion playoffs. In a tense affair, Cittadella came out victorious once again, edging Brescia by 1 goal to nil.
Since Cittadella were promoted to Serie B in 2016, this match has produced 29 goals in 8 matches played! However, only one of those eight matches resulted in a Brescia victory. Cittadella will also be feeling good that they have not lost in the league in the last seven tries.
A game with big implications on league positions nearing the New Years. Brescia looking to snap their poor form at home, while Cittadella aiming to continue their march into the upper edge of Serie B.
