"In Foggia's first season back in Serie B, nine of their first 11 matches have delivered Over 2.5 Goals - including 6/6 on the road"

Back Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.804/5 in Pro Vercelli v Foggia

The White Shirts of Pro Vercelli should prepare for a hot wash, because there won't be any clean sheets at Stadio Silvio Piola this afternoon, says Tobias Gourlay...

Pro Vercelli v Foggia
Sunday 16:30

Sevilla 2 Leganes 1 in Spain last night. It was too much excitement for our purposes, but now that we're in the mood for some entertainment...

Today's game takes us to the lower reaches of the Italian second tier, as bottom-of-the-table Pro Vercelli entertain second-bottom Foggia at the Stadio Silvio Piola. And this is no usual bargain-basement clash. We're expecting goals.

Gianluca Grassadonia's hosts have served up 20 goals through their first six home matches of the campaign. They've both scored and conceded in four of the last five and, together with their goal-crazy visitors, we fancy the White Shirts to get us to Over 2.5 Goals this afternoon. After all, their only previous visit from a team alongside them in the bottom six (Cesena) brought a 5-2 success.

The Little Satans of Foggia have rediscovered a bit of their 90s naughtiness, when Signori, Baiano and Rambaudi shot them into the higher reaches of Serie A. In this, their first season back in Serie B after a promotion, nine of their first 11 matches have delivered Over 2.5 Goals - including 6/6 on the road. In fact, all of those six each went Over 3.5 Goals too, with Giovanni Stroppa's men both scoring and conceding in each one.

Fill your boots.
