Benevento vs Crotone Preview
Benevento are rock-bottom in Serie A and look almost a certainty for relegation. After a horrid season, the hosts picked up six points from consecutive home wins against Sampdoria and Chievo which was then followed by four straight defeats leading into Sunday’s match. However, their last two matches were against league-leaders Napoli and 4th-placed Roma who they found the net twice against. They have the worst defensive record in the league and are not far behind Sassuolo for the worst offensive record either. However, they have two wins and a draw in their last five and have picked up seven goals across those games which will give the players and manager Roberto De Zerbi some confidence going into this match.
Midfielder Danilo Cataldi and defender Luca Antei will both miss the game through injury while Fabio Lucioni will have to spectate as he is serving a suspension after receiving a red card.
Crotone are unbeaten in their last four matches, drawing their last three with scores of 1-1. Like Benevento, Crotone have had a poor season but they have collected six points from their last four games to climb out of the relegation zone into 17th place. Walter Zenga knows that a win on Sunday could push them up to 15th place and towards safety.
Crotone have also had issues in front of goal. Finding the back of the net just 19 times in 24 games. However, scoring in their last four matches will give them hope of bagging at least one against a leaky Benevento back line.
Mario Sampirisi and Adrian Stoian remain out for the visitors with Mario Sampirisi and Federico Ricci taking their places at up front and at right back.

Benevento vs Crotone Predictions
Both teams have seen a glimmer of form recently with perhaps Crotone showing the most. Benevento really need to pick up 3 points in this game if they are going to have a chance of staying up and we feel they may just grab a goal or two. We’ve seen three 1-1 draws for Crotone in their last three matches and we wouldn’t be surprised to see that result again on Sunday.
