Brescia-Cagliari hasn't been a match like any other since Massimo Cellino has been at the helm of the Lombard club. Imagine today, given the importance of the stakes for both teams.
Ranieri's must raise the bar as soon as possible and dispel the away taboo (where he hasn't won for six months) if he wants to face the playoffs with the upper hand. Gastaldello's - the fourth coach in a troubled season to say the least - is penultimate in the standings and can no longer afford half a false step, he has only won three points in the last thirteen days and needs a victory like bread to escape from the hell.
Fiery game, in short, at the "Rigamonti" stadium. The eleven rossoblùs to break the ice will be Radunovic, Zappa, Dossena, Goldaniga, Obert, Nandez, Makoumbou, Kourfalidis, Luvumbo, Mancosu and Lapadula. Landlords at the start, however, with Andrenacci, Karacic, Cistana, Adorni, Huard, Bisoli, Van De Looi, Bjorkengren, Galazzi, Rodriguez and Ayé. Kick-off at 3pm, international referee Fabbri.
