2026-2027 Coppa Italia: Benevento vs. Ravenna, Probable Lineups

Benevento and Ravenna kick off their seasons at Vigorito Stadium: the match for the first round of the 2026-2027 Coppa Italia is scheduled for Sunday evening at 9:00 p.m. The Stregoni, who will play in Serie B next year, won their most recent friendly matches against Ostiamare and Vis Pesaro and drew with Frosinone; the Ravenna side, currently in Serie C, defeated K-Sport Montecchio Gallo in a friendly just a few days ago.

The offensive focal point of Floro Florez’s team is Salvemini, a center forward supported by attacking midfielders Lamesta, Talia, and Battista. Maita and Prisco anchor the midfield, while Pierozzi and Beruatto operate on the wings. Scognamillo and Caldirola are in the center.

Ravenna responds with an attacking trio consisting of Orellana, Fischnaller, and Maggio. In midfield, Rossetti directs play alongside Lonardi and Tenkorang, while the defensive line features Donati, Esposito, Solini, and Bani.

Benevento vs. Ravenna: Probable Lineups
Benevento (4-2-3-1): Vannucchi; Pierozzi, Scognamillo, Caldirola, Beruatto; Maita, Prisco; Lamesta, Talia, Battista; Salvemini. Head Coach: Floro Flores.
Ravenna (4-3-3): Venturi; Donati, Esposito, Solini, Bani; Lonardi, Rossetti, Tenkorang; Orellana, Fischnaller, Maggio. Head Coach: Mandorlini.

“The team is still eager to prove itself and put itself to the test,” said Floro Flores at a press conference on the eve of the match. “We’re in good shape; physically, we’re at 50%. Playing a competitive match is different from friendlies, which don’t really count for much. I always expect a lot from my players. To achieve what we want, we need to give it that extra something.”
