Ternana vs Pescara – Italy Serie C Play-Offs

Union Española to Win | |
6/5 - odds when tipped |  |
Reasoning Union Española are desperate for league points and have just enjoyed a morale-boosting cup win under new manager Gonzalo Villagra. While Limache are improving, their away form is dismal. With a confident home crowd and tactical lift, Española are well-placed to edge this contest. A narrow home win looks most likely. | |
🟢 Key Betting Stats:
- 11 – Pescara have scored 11 goals in their last four playoff matches.
- 7 – Ternana have found the net seven times in their past three home games.
- 4/5 – BTTS has landed in four of Pescara’s last five fixtures.
Rationale:
Monday’s most promising betting selection comes from the Italian Serie C playoffs, where Ternana host Pescara at the Stadio Libero Liberati in a decisive knockout encounter. German tipster Wolfgang Shotten has zeroed in on this tie as the standout opportunity for punters, with Both Teams to Score emerging as the top recommendation based on recent form, motivation levels, and match dynamics.
Ternana, who finished second in the regular season, have made their home ground a stronghold in recent weeks. Their last three matches in front of their supporters have yielded a combined seven goals scored, including a confident 3-1 win over Vicenza in the playoff semi-final second leg. Fabio Liverani’s men play a fluid attacking game, with the likes of Alessio Curcio and Salvatore Aloi finding rhythm at just the right time.
Their defensive line, however, has not been without concern. Ternana have managed only one clean sheet in their last five outings, and enter this fixture without two key defenders: Giuseppe Loiacono and Dimo Krastev are both ruled out, exposing potential vulnerabilities that a hungry Pescara side will look to exploit.
Pescara, meanwhile, have been a revelation in the postseason. The Dolphins have netted 11 goals in their four playoff matches so far, an average of 2.75 per game. They scored four away to Audace Cerignola and another four at Vis Pesaro, showing their attacking prowess travels well. Despite their forward momentum, they have only one clean sheet in those same games, meaning their open style often results in goals at both ends.
Historically, clashes between these two teams have also favoured BTTS outcomes. Four of the last six meetings have seen both sides score, and their most recent regular season battle in Terni ended in a 2-1 away win for Pescara—again, both teams finding the net.
With so much riding on this match—namely a spot in the Serie C final—neither side is expected to adopt a conservative approach. Pescara’s fast tempo and attacking mindset combined with Ternana’s strong home form and potent front three should make for an end-to-end affair. The defensive absences on both sides further add to the likelihood of a high-octane, goal-filled contest.
