Verona, on the other hand, lost one game less and drew one more. Both, therefore, will aim for first victory of this edition of the championship.
In the press conference, the Tuscan coach Alberto Gilardino presented the match against the Scaligeri. He started by talking about the communicated spread by fans of Pisa: “I read it after training was over. La Curva is showing great maturity and they never cease to amaze us. Usually I don’t go under the curve at the end of the match, but seeing that after losing against Bologna the boys received applause was nice. Today’s message is full of meaning. Even if it’s not a final, it’s still an important match. We all have to be patient because it will be fundamental for the match. We need to be calm and clear-headed.”
Then he talked about tactics And condition of the players: “We have to be good at changing the game mode during the match. Lusuardi will be evaluated because, unfortunately, he stopped in training. As you well know, Stengs, Maucci and Esteves will not be there. We will also evaluate Aebischer, who trained today.”
Gilardino: “In this beginning, we and they deserved more”

Subsequently, the former striker spoke about the Verona: “Just like us, Verona also deserved more in these first league games. They are very strong on the second balls and we have to concentrate fully. The team is growing mentally. Our aim is to be ready.” Afterwards, he spoke about pressure: “It’s normal to have it, but you have it in every match. It must be something healthy that increases attention to detail during the match and the awareness of being able to be decisive in a positive way.”
Then, he talked about some players: “Cuadrado can replace Touré on the right but, even if he’s fine, Leris will play in that position. We’ve done some tests and I’ll decide in the next few hours. I didn’t risk Moreo because he had a knee problem in Bologna. He’s fine now and we’re evaluating whether to play with two pure attackers or not. Lorran is growing and is ready to lend a hand to the team and, like the others, I’m evaluating him. In defence, Raul Albiol can play with everyone and the others make themselves available to play together.”
Gilardino: “Pisa must be the one seen against Fiorentina”

In conclusion, Gilardino spoke about the defeat against Bologna: “We are a team with new and young players. Maturity also comes from defeats and mistakes that need to be corrected. We intervened to understand where we need to improve. I don’t sleep at night because I want to find solutions to be more dangerous. However, I think that only against Bologna did we not create many opportunities. Tomorrow everyone wants to see the team seen against Fiorentina or against Atalanta. That must be the real Pisa.”
