Playoff Serie C 2024-2025: Crotone-Juventus Next Gen, likely lineups

This evening at 8 p.m. Crotone will make its Serie C playoff debut within the friendly walls of the Ezio Scida stadium, hosting next-gen Juventus, galvanized by a resounding 5-1 thrashing of Benevento on Sunday. The bianconeri need to repeat themselves to pass the round, in case of a draw, in fact, to pass would be the red and blue, by virtue of the best placement obtained in the league.

Mister Longo will have the entire squad available and will still rely on the 4-2-3-1. D’Alterio is confirmed in goal, with Cargnelutti and Di Pasquale in the center of defense, flanked by Guerini on the right and Giron on the left. In the middle of the field space will be given to the Vinicius-Gallo pair, while Silva, Tumminello and Vitale will act on the three-quarter behind the only forward Gomez.

Mister Brambilla seems intent on confirming most of the eleven protagonist of the success in Benevento, focusing on 3-4-2-1. Gil Puche is in the ballot to return as a starter in defense alongside Scaglia and Turicchia, in front of goalkeeper Daffara. Comenencia and Pietrelli will move on the flanks, with Macca and Faticanti in the median. In attack, trust the offensive trio composed of Cudrig and Afena-Gyan to support Guerra.
