It is the last match of the regular season for Latina and Taranto and has an important meaning especially for the hosts. The Pontini coached by Gaetano Fontana arrive at this challenge after the failure suffered in Benevento and with the risk of being able to remain out of the play-off grid in the event of defeat and simultaneous successes of Foggia and Cerignola without forgetting the loose cannon Sorrento which could sensationally with a victory fueling new play-off hopes. There is a lot of bitterness at Latina for having underestimated the moment in recent weeks, thinking that the playoff issue was a done deal. During the week we realized that we had lost an important wealth of points which now forces the Pontini team to make no more mistakes. You have to win to guarantee a place in the play offs, avoiding a real joke. Paganini and his companions are therefore called upon to play a vigorous and substantial game to achieve victory. The opponent is certainly not the simplest because this one is called Taranto. Capuano’s team arrives after a brilliant success against Avellino and with high morale. Awareness and strength have become the now consolidated weapons of this group of players who do not want to give up an inch in the regular season and, therefore, want to give themselves one last gasp by beating Fontana’s team. All to guarantee at least fourth place. A position that would mean missing the first play-off round, which would make the rossoblù’s championship bigger. And be careful, it should not be forgotten that in the middle there is the appeal to the CONI Guarantee Board that the Ionian company presented this week to try to regain the four penalty points suffered in the previous levels of judgement. Therefore, a perspective still to be written for the Apulian club. So, no devolution. Great energy and great substance to put on the pitch to achieve success against Latina who, however, for their part will have to play the perfect match to achieve victory. In the precedents at the Francioni between the two teams we have two victories for Latina, two draws and two victories for Taranto.
LATINA HERE. Coach Fontana has to do without midfielder Mazzocco and players who have not yet fully recovered. The formation should be oriented towards a 3-4-2-1 with Mastroianni as the sole striker with D’Orazio and Paganini on the sides. In the middle of the field Del Sole and Ricciardi should be the team’s directors with Ercolano on the right and Crecco, former player, on the left. In defense, in front of goalkeeper Guadagno, there will be Vona, Marino and De Santis. There should be no lack of support from the public knowing the importance of the match. The club called together Pontini supporters.
HERE TARANTO. Ezio Capuano does not deviate from his 3-4-3 this season. With Miceli disqualified and Panico unavailable, Riggio will be the central defender with his teammates Luciani and Enrici on the sides in front of goalkeeper Vannucchi. In midfield Calvano is not among the squad with Ladinetti ready to take the starting shirt with Zonta nearby. On the wings there will be Mastromonaco on the right and Valietti on the left. Up front, the change compared to last Sunday will be Fabbro on the right with Kanoutè on the bench. Simeri is the favorite as first striker with Bifulco on the left. Almost 500 rossoblù fans will be present in Latina
