It's no vacation for neither Brescia nor Reggina as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

It's quite the trip for Reggina when visiting Brescia as the cities are 1200 kilometers apart.

Brescia form and stats

The story so far in the Serie B for Brescia at their home stadium (Stadio Mario Rigamonti) is 5 wins, 4 draws and 5 defeats.

Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper Jesse Joronen not having conceded a league goal in 276 minutes.

Brescia are returning here after visiting Frosinone in a Serie B game and winning with a 1-0 scoreline. Emanuele Ndoj scored the goal(s). In the game before, an away victory match versus Venezia with a 1-0 scoreline.

The victory against Frosinone came after Emanuele Ndoj's winning goal. The Brescia manager J. Clotet Ruiz was very happy afterwards with the decision to bring on that player in the 61st minute. Some amazing scenes last match, when Emanuele Ndoj scored the winning goal three minutes into stoppage time.

This is expected to be a close game, with Brescia perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Brescia as a small favourite), we find two games. Brescia has won one of these, drawn one and lost zero.

The Brescia fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 23 goals in 14 league matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 21 goals have been conceded. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
