For their part, Ivan Gotti’s men also arrive with confidence high from their recent away win against Torino (0-1), thanks to M’Bala Nzola’s solitary first-half penalty goal.
In doing so, El Aquilotti are unbeaten in their last five official matches (2 wins, 3 draws), all in a Calcio where they currently sit fifteenth in the standings, nine points clear of the relegation places.
