Sibongiseni’s picks

Having drawn all five of their last six matches, Italian Serie B side Pro Vercelli have marked themselves as draw specialists but will be out for a rare win when they meet Carpi today.

Vercelli are 20th in a 22team league and are level on points with Ascoli who are behind them and three above bottom-placed Ternana although there are still 10 games to go.

Carpi are ninth in the league and 13 points behind the promotion positions and will look to use their home advantage to collect three points but may find the going tough against a defensively-minded Vercelli. Carpi have also not been doing so well and this looks to be the match where Vercelli will finally register a win.
