Brindisi vs Audace Cerignola tips and predictions

Deadlock beckons as unfancied hosts look to spoil the party

This isn't a confident view but the short price for Audace Cerignola has made them a terrible bet. Brindisi don't look likely to go the whole nine yards, but they might keep the visitors on their toes. Building on the strong rearguard performances of both sides, a goalless stalemate is the pick but it's certainly not something to get carried away with.

There have been some notable displays in defence by both sides. Creating something of a fortress at home, Brindisi have conceded at an average of just 0.8 goals per game over their last 5 matches and Audace Cerignola haven't conceded a single goal during their most recent 3 matches.

You might be expecting one of these sides to stifle the action because of the massive favouritism for Audace Cerignola. The No BTTS bet looks like the best play.

Brindisi have drawn 9 of their last 20 matches on their own soil. They drew 1-1 with Mariglianese in December. Audace Cerignola have drawn 3 of their last 7 away games and while any draw will do, a scoreline of 0-0 cannot be written off here. It's not very exciting and it feels like a match to be wary of but the draw warrants consideration. Stalemate is the pick after what looks set to be a tightly contested match-up.
