Fantanews, from Baldanzi to Colombo: 5 low cost tips for the 30th matchday

The 30th day of Serie A is upon us. It will be Cremonese-Empoli to open the championship weekend on Friday 14 April at 18.30, while Fiorentina-Atalanta will be postponed to Monday evening. The fantasy coaches are already buzzing about their training choices and hope to get them all right as the decisive moment of the season arrives. In addition to the starters, those players who are considered second choices and who could prove to be decisive with their bonuses for the final score are also important. Here are 5 low cost players to bet on for the next day recommended by Fantaredazione.

Mergim Vojvoda (20)

—

The Kosovar winger from Turin is not having the best season of his career, employed with little continuity by Juric who has often preferred Ricardo Rodriguez, Singo and Lazaro to him. Nonetheless, Vojvoda has collected 22 seasonal appearances in the league, 12 as a starter, signing 4 assists and obtaining a fantasy average just below the sufficiency (5.92). Salernitana arrives at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino next Sunday at 15:00, fresh from the draw they wrested from Inter in the final. Even against the Nerazzurri, the defense of Paulo Sousa’s men revealed evident difficulties especially on the outside lanes, from where Inter tried to send crosses in the middle. Vojvoda will try to make an impact against a team that has the third worst defense in the league and who have conceded 28 goals out of their 49 total away from home.

Thomas Baldanzi (25)

—

The best of Empoli for fantasy media (6.8) by virtue of the 4 goals scored in 20 games, 18 as owner. The 2003 class originally from Castelfiorentino has collected the pass 18 times this season, the last five consecutively. He hasn’t scored since the match against Inter on 23 January but is proving to be increasingly important in the maneuvers of Zanetti’s team as they head towards safety for the third year in a row. On the next day, Empoli will be guests of Cremonese, fresh from the hopeful victory against Sampdoria but in the penultimate place and involved in a desperate fight not to relegate. Ballardini’s team is the most beaten defense in the league, conceding goals in 15 consecutive games and at home they have collected only 6 of the 16 points in the standings (1 win and 3 draws). Certainly Baldanzi will try to take advantage of the spaces that will open up in the opposing defence. Is it the right time to find the bonus again?

Jonathan Ikoné (27)

—

The Frenchman from Fiorentina is doing well and it shows. In the Conference League match against Lech Poznan he scored the goal that closed the game on 1-4, a ride that started in midfield and ended with a precise left-footed shot that went into the goalkeeper’s right. In the league he made 27 appearances, of which 19 as a starter, seasoned with 2 goals and 2 assists. He hasn’t brought bonuses for some time: his last goal dates back to the match against Inter on October 22nd while his most recent assist came on March 12th in the match against Cremonese. Against Atalanta, fresh from the resounding defeat against Bologna, the class of ’98 will try to drive the Nerazzurri defense crazy which has not always shown itself to be attentive and precise in managing the ball and the moments of the match. Ikoné is growing after an initial period of acclimatization in Italian football, in the same way Fiorentina has recorded team movements and the Frenchman can also express his qualities by playing more lightly and carefree. Trust him!

lorenzo colombo (27)

—

The Lecce striker comes off the bench against Napoli in which Baroni has decided not to use him even in the usual substitution with Ceesay. Indeed, in the last few games there was a drop in the condition of the young Under 21 striker who is having a lot of difficulty in the goal area both due to the few chances offered to him by his teammates and due to a non-optimal state of form. On the last day of the championship against Napoli, Lecce, unlucky in the defeat, scored again after 5 games without goals, a sign that Baroni’s men have certainly not given up and will fight for salvation until the last game. Against Sampdoria last and with one foot in Serie B, the opportunity to return to the goal and be even more secure in the standings is tempting. The problems in defense of Stankovic’s team are known which from January onwards in the last 14 days recorded only 2 wins, 3 draws and 9 defeats, conceding 23 goals. There will certainly be plenty of space and Colombo will try to exploit them to hurt even with shooting from distance, his specialty.

James Raspadori (28)

—

There were those who expected him to start in the Champions League match against Milan, instead Luciano Spalletti only put him on the field around 70′ in place of Lozano. He didn’t seem to be in the best condition, perhaps the aftermath of the injury doesn’t allow him to still be at 100%. However, he is the only central striker available to the blue coach and against Verona he should be the starter in the forward department. He has to put minutes in his legs after missing 5 games due to a strain of the semimembranosus muscle in his left thigh. In the championship, Napoli can play peacefully, thanks to their 16-point lead over the second, however it seems that nobody wants to pull the brakes. Verona is trying to re-emerge from the hot spot in the standings but the defense is a sieve with an average of 1.5 goals conceded per game. Raspadori has only scored one goal in the league against an xG (expected goals) average of 2.70. Furthermore, he averages almost one shot on goal per game (0.7) and has missed two big chances in front of the goalkeeper. The bonuses will come, deploy it and you won’t regret it!
