Ternana vs Ascoli Prediction & Preview

Preview

As the Serie B season advances into its 35th round, Ternana will host Ascoli at Stadio Libero Liberati this Saturday. The match promises to be a riveting encounter given both teams' recent forms and their quest for crucial points.

Ternana, under the guidance of Roberto Breda, find themselves in 15th position with 37 points. Their form has been somewhat stable, managing to secure two wins, two draws, and suffering only one loss in their last five matches. In their most recent game against Brescia away from home at Stadio Mario Rigamonti, they managed a goalless draw.

On the other side of the pitch stands Ascoli led by Massimo Carrera who are currently positioned just below the safety line at 18th place with 34 points. They've had a mixed bag of results recently - one win, one loss and three draws in their last five outings; showing resilience but also inconsistency. Their latest fixture saw them draw against Modena at home with no goals scored on either side.

Looking back at head-to-head encounters provides further intrigue: Ascoli have dominated Ternana historically with four wins out of five previous meetings including a decisive 2-0 victory earlier this season when they met last September at Stadio Cino e Lillo Del Duca.

Considering goal averages for both sides paints an interesting picture: Ternana scores an average of about one goal per game while conceding slightly more than that (1.1). At home however their goalscoring drops significantly (0.5), although they concede fewer too (0.75). Conversely Ascoli's away performance sees them netting around 0.75 goals per game and conceding exactly one on average.

Bet

Given both teams’ current performance levels as well as head-to-head history where scoring has been low between these sides particularly in recent times coupled with tight defensive stats especially from Ascoli who concedes less than a goal per match on average when playing away – betting ‘Under 2.5 Goals’ appears promising here. With odds set at 1.66 for under 2.5 goals reflecting better value considering defensive statistics and past outcomes between these two clubs where low-scoring encounters were common; it stands out as an informed choice for those looking to place bets on this matchup.
