Pisa have hit form after a poor start: Pisa vs Virtus Entella prediction
The Serie B match between Pisa and Virtus Entella will take place on 11 September. The hosts have won their last two league matches and collected six points from three rounds, while the visitors are still searching for their first victory.
Pisa: two consecutive wins after an opening setback
Pisa began the season with a 1-0 home defeat to Padova but quickly turned things around. The Tuscan side then beat Catanzaro 2-1 before thrashing Juve Stabia 3-0 away from home in their latest match.
After relegation from Serie A, the team are aiming to immediately challenge for a return to the top flight. Six points keep them close to the leading group, while their recent results suggest that performances are gradually becoming more consistent.
Virtus Entella: still without a league victory
Virtus Entella have collected just one point from their opening three Serie B matches. After defeats of 1-0 to Südtirol and 2-1 to Cesena, they drew 2-2 at home with Vicenza.
Their away record is particularly concerning, with the Ligurian side losing seven of their last nine matches on the road. In addition, defensive errors have already become a recurring issue in both the league and the Coppa Italia.
Match facts and head-to-head record
- Pisa have won their last two Serie B matches by an aggregate score of 5-1.
- Virtus Entella have collected only one point from their opening three matches.
- Virtus Entella won both of the teams' most recent meetings, played in 2020 and 2021.
The hosts look considerably more convincing: Pisa vs Virtus Entella prediction
After losing in the opening round, Pisa quickly improved and now look stronger both in terms of results and overall performance. A home match against an opponent with serious problems on the road gives them a good opportunity to extend their winning run.
Virtus Entella remain too inconsistent defensively and have yet to win a league match. If the hosts maintain their current tempo, they should take all three points.
