The Coppa Italia Serie C kicked off today, but Spezia and Torres will face off on Sunday at 6:00 PM at the Ligurian stadium . For the Sassari team, it will be a prestigious test against a team recently relegated from Serie B and who were even in Serie A just four years ago.
Spezia has overhauled its squad, changing its coach and 15 players. Torres has the advantage of going into the match with nine-elevenths of its players familiar. The only two changes will be defender Berto, forced to play center back due to Antonelli's injury, and attacking midfielder Pennington, who has impressed the most among the new arrivals for his reliability and vision .
The Coppa Italia format is a one-off match, meaning the winner advances immediately . There is no extra time: if the two teams are still tied after 90 minutes of regulation time, the match will go straight to penalties.
