Under 3.5 goals at Benevento vs Pisa 4/11 for Tuesday’s Serie B contest

Competition: Serie B

Market: Under 3.5 goals

Odds: 4/11 @ 888sport

Two sides who will be hoping to pick up a first-leg advantage on Tuesday night, Benevento will host Pisa when the Serie B play-offs get underway.

Starting with the hosts, drawing a line under their worrying rut a few days ago, Benevento will be desperate to build off of that momentum here. In their 38 Serie B matchups this season, they recorded 18 wins, nine draws and 11 defeats, scoring 62 and conceding 39 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 63, they finished the 2021/22 campaign sat seventh in the standings and holding a five-point buffer from dropping out of the play-off spots. As for their recent run of results, last seen picking up a 1-0 victory away at Ascoli, that result brought an end to Benevento’s three-match losing run. Likewise, it should also be highlighted, along with each of their last four Serie B contests, Tuesday’s hosts have seen seven of their previous eight second-tier fixtures finish with under 3.5 goals.

As for the visitors, despite just about missing out on an automatic Serie A promotion this year, Pisa still have their sights set on finding a route out of Italy’s second-tier. In their 38 Serie B matchups this season, they recorded 18 wins, 13 draws and seven defeats, scoring 48 and conceding 35 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 67, they ended the 2021/22 campaign sat third in the table and just two points adrift of breaking into the top-two. As for their recent run of results, last seen picking up a 2-1 victory against Frosinone earlier in the month, Pisa have lost just one of their previous six outings. However, it should also be noted, with Tuesday’s guests seeing five of those six Serie B fixtures finish with under 3.5 goals, we’re backing a similar outcome here.
