To continue to dream of eighth place, the Bull must overcome the taboo of La Spezia. In the five official matches played in their history at the Pike, the Grenades have won only once: it was the 1937/1938 Coppa Italia, the 4-2 final representing the only success in Liguria. There were other previous wins between the 1920s and 1930s, both 2–1, and most recently between the 1980s and 1990s, but these were four friendly matches. With regard to today, and also due to a nearly eighty-year hiatus due to the absence of Spezia in important football, the balance is becoming disastrous and unsettling. Nikola crashed a very hard 4-1 in May and endured a bitter dispute on his return from an away trip, which made this rescue all the more exciting, while last season it was Juric who lost 1-0 after a weak performance. There will be a new opportunity this afternoon to try to reverse this trend, also because the first leg loss at Grande Torino further worsened the balance against them: in five games since Spezia’s return to Serie A, therefore, since 2020, Toro has succeeded win only once and failed to score three times.
