The final match of the weekend in the Italian Serie A takes place on Monday the 7th of February as Salernitana meet Spezia.
The game will be played at the Stadio Arechi and the hosts begin the weekend bottom of the table on 10 points while the visitors are in 14th place on 25 points.
Salernitana come into the match on the back of a 4-1 loss at Napoli in Serie A. Having conceded the opening goal in the 17th minute, Salernitana struck back 16 minutes later to equalise.
However, Napoli quickly took the game away from Salernitana and added three goals in the space of 8 minutes around the interval to take maximum points.
That result means Salernitana have lost 7 of their last 8 Serie A matches. The only victory came away from home against Verona and Salernitana have tasted defeat away to AC Milan, Fiorentina, Udinese, and Napoli plus at home to Juventus, Inter Milan, and Lazio.
Home form in the league shows Salernitana have lost each of their 6 most recent games and have recorded just a single victory from their last 10 home Serie A fixtures.
Trends show no goals have been scored by Salernitana in their last 5 home games in Serie A. In addition, Salernitana have conceded 12 goals in their last 4 home league matches, at an average of 3 goals per game.
Spezia make the trip to the Stadio Arechi having beat Sampdoria 1-0 at home in their previous Serie A fixture. It was a good result for Spezia that saw them move 5 points clear of Sampdoria and 8 points clear of the relegation zone.
Spezia have been enjoying a good run of results recently in Serie A and they have won 4 of their last 5 league matches. In addition to the victory against Sampdoria, Spezia have beat Napoli, Genoa, and AC Milan, with all 3 wins coming on the road.
So, away form is good and Spezia have won each of their last 3 away trips in Serie A having previously lost 6 straight away fixtures in the league.
Trends show Spezia have kept a clean sheet in 2 of their last 3 away Serie A games but have scored more than a single goal only twice in their last 9.
Team news and Salernitana are without suspended defender Frederic Veseli. Lassana Coulibaly should be back from the Africa Cup of Nations but Andrea Schiavone, Mamadou Coulibaly, Nadir Zortea, and Stefan Strandberg are injured.
Spezia have three players on the treatment table, with Aimar Sher, Simone Bastoni, and Ebrima Colley set to miss out.
Things are getting desperate for Salernitana at the foot of the table but in contrast, Spezia have hit a spell of good form, especially away.
Although we do not expect to see them win comfortably, Spezia should come away with the victory and keep a clean sheet.
