Spezia take on the visitors Carpi at "Stadio Alberto Picco" in the matchday two of the Italian Serie B. The game will be played in La Spezia on Sunday, September 3rd.
Last season Spezia occupied the eighth place in the Serie B with 60 points earned and 38-34 goal difference. In the Promotion Play Offs "Aquilotti" lost 1:2 to Benevento in the quarter-final. The team had unsuccessful start of the new season, after beating Reggiana 3:0 Spezia was broken 0:2 by Sassuolo in the Coppa Italia plus they started in the Serie B with 0:2 defeat to Palermo on the road. It should be noted that despite three losses in four recent official encounters, Spezia was beaten only once alongside with nine triumphs and five draws gained at the home turf since the 19th of November 2016.

Carpi finished last season sitting on the seventh place in the Serie B. However, the side managed to promote to the Promotion Play Offs final but was defeated by Benevento 0:1, 0:0 and now has to start performing again in the Serie B. This season “Biancorossi” successfully overcome their opponents having knocked out Livorno 4:0 and Salernitana 4:3 in the Coppa Italia while having broken Novara 1:0 in the Serie B.
Carpi have not been defeated by Spezia across six recent head-to-heads, having got four victories with two draws. I believe that the visiting side's unbeaten run will be extended as it is considered to be one of the favorites for promoting to the Serie A which it has to prove in the forthcoming clash.
Prediction for the match: Carpi to win with +0.5 Asian handicap (X2).
