Bari vs Pisa tips and predictions

Small margins expected in Serie B

With a handful of points between them, it's 16th placed Bari hosting ninth placed Pisa in this Serie B clash as the visitors look to add digits to the 8 points between the sides.

The jury's still out on this one but you can make a case for all outcomes. The away team has the edge in terms of the odds available.

Don't be surprised if these odds fluctuate a lot before the match. Backers of the away win can take some confidence from the hosts' recent winning rate. Bari have been patchy. They've lost 6 of their last 8 matches. Those reverses have not been helped by their latest goal count. They've scored one or less goals in all of their last 9 games and that isn't good enough, even if there were fitness issues at the other end of the park. They have conceded at least once in all of their last 8 games. If they run in to any selection issues here they could be in trouble.

In a fixture that has split opinions, there is plenty of evidence for supporting the away win. Pisa have got a win in 4 of their last 6 outings. These latest wins have been made possible by how clinical they've been in front of goal. They've scored at least once in all of their last 17 games and they'll be looking to add to that average here.

In fairness they may end up in stalemate. Each of the two sides can present danger and it might be a match with scoring chances at both ends. It might not be a commonly held view but the Yes BTTS bet is a reluctant side bet for this particular game.
