Mantua, against Juve Stabia it is a must to restart

Mantua – Mantua must emerge from the crisis tunnel. After a first half of the season that had given rise to the sweet dream of conquering a place in the play-offs, the engine of the Virgilian formation jammed and Possanzini's team not only lost the brilliance of the beginning of the season, but, above all, lost the road to victory. A really sudden slowdown, which has caused the red and white rookies to end up right in the play out zone and which now requires a turnaround in the home match against another team that has just climbed up from Serie C like Juve StabiaThe Wasps managed to enter the play-off zone, but are coming off two defeats that have slowed their progress.

For this reason, the yellow and blues are preparing to play at the “Martelli” determined to get a result, an objective that, however, Burrai and his teammates absolutely cannot allow. In fact, Mantova must return to winning ways and must be able to recover from a position in the standings that, day after day, is becoming increasingly delicate, given that not only have the Virgilians sunk to fourth-last place, but they also enjoy a two-point advantage over direct relegation. A turning point is needed and it must be found without wasting any more time, given that there are fewer and fewer matches available and the red and whites now have the obligation to return to enrich a standings that is becoming increasingly “stingy”.

In this sense, there are several aspects to be touched upon in this immediate aftermath, given that, on the one hand, society has closed ranks around Possanzini, reiterating that the coach is not up for discussion, but on the other hand it is necessary for Burrai and his teammates to find conviction and confidence, taking back the reins of the game in which they have always believed and erasing (finally) those errors, frankly avoidable, which have represented a constant and a dangerous brake on this season's return to Serie B.

Mister Possanzini, who on this eve has to check the conditions of Redolfi, but also of Fiori and Ruocco (while he has already withdrawn Muroni), has reiterated several times that "it is only a crisis of results, lthe team is alive and will survive”. A firm confidence in a very delicate moment that however demands positive responses from the match with Juve Stabia. A match that, given the importance of what is at stake, requires the Virgilian team to have maximum concentration, but Mantova in this difficult moment can ask once again for the support of the always warm red and white public, a help that has already proved decisive many times and that can help the Virgilian team to emerge from the nightmare of the crisis. Probable lineups: Mantua (3-4-2-1): Festa; Mensah. All: Possanzini. Juve Stabia (3-4-2-1): Thiam; Ruggiero, Varnier, Bellich; Floriani Mussolini, Buglio, Leone, Fortini; Pierobon, Piscopo; Candellone. Coach: Pagliuca.
