AI match recap
Avellino enter with stronger form, home output and a clear opportunity to exploit a depleted Padova attack. Padova are missing Lasagna and Caprari, leaving Calabro to reshape the forward line around a more physical alternative. Nesta expects either an aggressive Padova start or a compact defensive plan, and he has challenged his own side to maintain control for full phases rather than only in bursts. Fixture management matters too, with Avellino entering a demanding sequence and carrying a few late fitness checks.
Head-to-head analysis
This fixture has been a low-margin rivalry in the recent sample, with Avellino winning the last meeting at Partenio-Adriano Lombardi. Padova have also taken results in the wider five-match sequence, so history supports a tight contest rather than a one-sided pattern.
Injuries and absences
Padova’s confirmed absences of Lasagna and Caprari substantially reduce their usual attacking variety and make a more direct Moro–Artistico setup more likely. For Avellino, Izzo’s illness and the assessments of Simic and Cancellotti are late selection issues rather than confirmed absences.
