- Frosinone are unbeaten in five matches (W3, D2), winning their last two.
- Padova have lost their last four matches (W0, D1, L4) and have lost both of their previous two away games.
- Frosinone have not lost any of their last three home games (W2, D1).
Promotion-chasing Frosinone should get the better of a creative Padova
Frosinone are heavy favorites to beat a struggling Padova on Sunday, when the 3rd-placed Serie B outfit will be expected to build on a two-game winning streak against the 13th-placed visitors. Our Frosinone vs Padova prediction suggests that the hosts are likely to maintain their momentum.
With 65 points from 32 games played, Frosinone are well on their way to sealing promotion to Serie A, and the form of Massimiliano Alvini’s side certainly supports their status as 1.51 favorites here. The Giallazzurri are unbeaten in their last five matches (W3, D2), recording a 3-1 win at Sudtirol and a 2-1 victory at home to Bari last time out.
With a compact back three/five, Frosinone are able to press with intensity and create a huge number of attacks in transition. Alvini’s men have not lost any of their last three matches at home (W2, D1) and score a lot of goals in Serie B, especially when they overrun teams in the central areas. This Frosinone vs Padova preview highlights the attacking threat that Frosinone possesses, especially on home turf.
Frosinone can exploit the flanks and counter against Padua
Padova will surely set up to stop that from happening on Sunday, as their coach Matteo Andreoletti likes to keep things simple and control the pace of the game. The Biancoscudati have a creative central midfielder to dictate play and two forwards to control possession, although they have been less effective in their recent games, which has led to four consecutive losses. This Frosinone vs Padova prediction incorporates the fact that Padova's struggles on the road may continue.
A run of one draw from their last five games has seen Padova slip to 13th in the standings (34 points from 32 matches), and a return of five wins, three draws and eight defeats from their away fixtures in Serie B this season points to a likely home win here.
The Biancoscudati have averaged 0.88 goals per game on their travels and conceded an average of 1.31 goals. They should be able to get on the scoreboard against a solid Frosinone side, however, as the Giallazzurri have conceded an average of just 0.93 goals per match at home. That’s why we’re taking the 1.62 odds on both teams to score, based on current Frosinone vs Padova betting tips.
A classic Serie B clash should be a good watch
Although Frosinone are rightful favorites based on form and promotion ambitions, we’ll take Padova to get a goal against their hosts, who should also have enough quality to put a few past their visitors. The clash of styles should be interesting to watch as Frosinone like to press and counter in numbers, while Padova will aim to keep the ball and slow the game down. The final Frosinone vs Padova prediction is for a home win with both teams scoring.
Over 2.5 goals seems like a good bet here at 1.57. A repeat of Frosinone’s 1-0 away win in this fixture from six months ago won’t be on the cards for Padova, who have lost their last two away matches, including a 3-1 defeat at Venezia.
