The Swallows meet the Woodpeckers in Serie B today and Tobias Gourlay expects defences to be ruffled
Brescia v Ascoli
Wednesday 17:30
In Turkey yesterday, Basaksehir and Konyaspor came good for us. The visitors took a first-half lead but eventually succumbed 2-1 to deliver on our BTTS bet.
We’re in Italy today for one of the five matches from Serie B. Our pick is eighth-placed Ascoli’s trip to fifth-placed Brescia – we’re hoping to see both teams hit the back of the net in this one as well.
BTTS has been the right bet in 8/12 Brescia home league games this season – including all of the most recent four. Both teams have also scored in 3/3 head-to-heads between these two since the Swallows arrived in Serie B in 2020.
Ascoli have been strong on their travels recently, winning 5/6. The Woodpeckers have scored at least once in 11/12 this season, while only managing three clean sheets. BTTS has been the outcome in 8/12 and – at close to even money – it rates a bet today.
