Frosinone vs Salernitana Prediction & Betting Tips - Serie A

Prediction published on 26/04/2024, 06:22  by Joseph King in Serie A Predictions

Matchday 34 of the Italian Serie A sees a relegation scrap between 18th-place Frosinone and 20th-placed Salernitana. Frosinone come into this fixture even on points with 17th-place Udinese at 28 but trailing on goal differential (-23 to -18). However, that could turn to a three-point gap as Udinese have a game-in-hand advantage. Salernitana, meanwhile, have all but sealed their place in the Serie B next season with their points total of 15 seeing them some way adrift. It ends a streak of three consecutive seasons in the Italian top flight for the Garnets.

The hosts are on a frustrating run of form after a 0-0 away draw with Torino marked Frosinone’s fourth consecutive draw. While they are consistently grinding out points, the team really needs to break through with a win to end their current 12-game winless streak. In fact, the Canaries have only managed a single win in their last 18 matches across all competitions. This is a golden opportunity for Frosinone to put a desperately-needed three points on the board. Their hopes of avoiding the drop could well hinge on their ability to get the maximum points from this fixture.

Salernitana are just playing for pride at the moment barring a minor miracle. With five matches left, the maximum points total they can achieve would be 30 and they could find their relegation confirmed with a loss here and an Udinese win. The visitors are on a dreadful run of form and are yet to win a match in 2024. They’re on a 16-match winless run across all competitions which has seen them lose 13 and draw only three. Salernitana’s last outing resulted in a 2-0 home loss to Fiorentina, their second consecutive loss and their fifth from the last six games. The away side have also given up the most goals in the division at 70 for an average of over two goals allowed per contest.
