Rock bottom side Salernitana would be looking to pick up only their fourth league win of the season when they play hosts Spezia in the Serie A. Read on for our expert tips and predictions.

Spezia's hard-fought 2-1 victory against their opponents stretched their winning run in this fixture to four matches. Would we see them continue their dominance in this fixture ?

Spezia eyeing fourth consecutive league win

We always expected it to be a tough season for the newly-promoted side and barring any drastic changes in their form in the remaining games of the season, they should be heading back to Serie B. Three wins, two draws and seven losses add up to a measly ten points after 22 league games which put them at the bottom of the Italia Serie A. We saw Colantuono's charges manage a rare victory at the beginning of the year away at Hellas Verona, however, their leaky defence was penetrated seven times in the next two games against Lazio and Napoli, losing 3-0 and 4-1 respectively.

Spezia, on the flip side, have managed to shoot themselves up the league standings with a run of three consecutive league wins. They kicked off this run with a 1-0 win against Genoa before recording a famous win at the San Siro securing a 2-1 victory against Milan. A solitary strike from Daniele Verde just before the break against Sampdoria was enough to complete the trio of wins and considering their form in this fixture as well as their recent results, they have a huge opportunity to put some more daylight between them and the relegation zone.
