Benevento and Vicenza have met several times in recent years, and the last time Vicenza were the hosts, Benevento went away and won 4-1. This time, though, Vicenza come into it in a different state, because they have not won any of their last five league games. Benevento have picked up more wins this season, especially in their latest match when they won 2-0 at home, which leaves them with 10 points from 6 games, sitting 8th in the table. Vicenza, meanwhile, have only 5 points from 6 games. Their defence is clearly a problem, having already conceded 13 league goals, almost double what they have scored themselves. This game is likely to play out with Benevento having more of the ball and trying to push up in search of goals, while Vicenza, who need points, will not open up and trade blows from the start. They will probably sit in a compact block and wait for the chance to counter. If Vicenza can keep a clean sheet for long enough, the game will become even tighter and there is a chance they could pull out a draw.
