Vicenza score twice per game, but their defense concedes even more

⭐ Editor's Prediction
Benevento are considered favourites for this match on the back of more convincing results and the home advantage. However, Vicenza are capable of making it a contest, particularly if they can make the most of their attacking potential. Their away matches tend to be high-scoring affairs: Vicenza often find the net themselves but also leave opponents plenty of opportunities at the other end. Benevento are also fairly reliable going forward at home, so the hosts have good reason to continue that trend. Our pick is Total Goals - Over 2.5.
