Gorini gives team updates before Reggiana clash

Cittadella head coach Edoardo Gorini spoke to the press before his side travels to Reggio Emilia to take on Reggiana on Saturday.

The Granata are suffering their longest winless streak since the 2014/15 season as Gorini’s men have gone 11 games without a win. The recent results have put Cittadella outside the playoff zone by three points, and only five points above the relegation play-out zone.

Reggiana completed a comeback against promotion-chasing Venezia last week after being 2-0 down. Alessandro Nesta’s side have only lost once in the last 14 games, and sit one point above Cittadella going into Saturday’s match at the Mapei Stadium.

Here were some key takeaways from Edoardo Gorini before tomorrow’s match against Reggiana.

Squad updates:

“Pittarello has not recovered so he won’t be at the game but his injury is less serious than originally thought. He’s the only one who is not available for the match.”

On different formations being used:

“I’m evaluating the two possibilities, it also depends on the team we are facing. I’ll put the best model on the field that is appropriate for the tactical level.”

On Reggiana:

“I expect what they’ve always been doing with the 3-4-2-1 formation. They are constructed well and are a good team motivated coming from a victory against Venezia. They are one of the teams in Serie B that are in a good moment but the game starts at 0-0 and every game is different.”
