Perugia vs Pescara Betting Tips

It’s a battle for survival in the Italian Serie B as Perugia host Pescara on Friday. Despite finishing 17^th and 16^th in the regular season respectively, the two sides still have to face the axe and prove their mettle for staying afloat in Italy’s second-tier football.

It was an intense game when the sides met earlier this week. But Pescara kept their hopes alive of survival with a 2-1 win at home. But an away goal which opened the scoring for Perugia would have meant a lot to Friday’s home side as they will be expected to win at home for sure.

Perugia won just 1 game in the last 6 fixtures that they have played. Moreover, they haven’t won on home turf in a long time as the sole win in the recent fixtures has also come away from home at Vitrus Entella.

Pescara have won only two of their last 5 games in all competitions, with one of the wins coming against the bottom side Livorno. Clearly, they deserve the relegation playoff spot as much as any bottom side in Serie B. But against all odds, they were quite impressive in their performance in the 1-0 defeat last month against Chievo as they were unlucky not to grab a point.

Perugia have won 4 of their last 6 games against Pescara in all competitions. But the focus leading to Friday’s fixture would be on Pescara’s away form. Pescara have lost 8 of their last 9 away games.

Perugia vs Pescara Correct Score Predictions

Perugia have won their last 3 home games against Pescara in all competitions and considering Pescara’s away record this year, there is no chance that the latter is having any chance of a win on Friday. This should be a 1-0 win for Perugia.
