As the anticipation builds for the upcoming clash between Sorrento and Avellino, fans are eagerly awaiting the decisive match set to take place at the Viviani Stadium in Potenza on Saturday, April 19, 2025, at 18:30. This match, which is crucial for Avellino’s bid for promotion back to Serie B after a seven-year absence, is expected to draw significant attention from both teams’ supporters.
Initially, there were discussions about moving the match to the Stirpe Stadium in Frosinone due to safety concerns. However, Lega Pro opposed this move, stating that it would set a problematic precedent for future matches. As a result, the match will proceed at its originally scheduled venue, with a limited number of tickets made available to Avellino fans.
For this highly anticipated encounter, only 700 tickets will be available for Avellino supporters, and they can only be purchased by those holding a fidelity card from US Avellino. This limited access has disappointed many fans who were hoping for a larger turnout, but the club has made arrangements for a maxi-screen to be set up at the Partenio-Lombardi Stadium, allowing more fans to watch the match together.
Avellino is currently in a strong position, poised to secure their promotion to Serie B. The team, under the guidance of coach Raffaele Biancolino, has been training vigorously in preparation for the showdown against Sorrento. The squad is nearly at full strength, with the return of key player Patierno, who missed the previous match against Monopoli due to suspension. His presence is expected to bolster the team’s attacking options.
During the week, Avellino held a closed training session, focusing on strategies and tactics to ensure they are well-prepared for the challenge ahead. Iannarilli, though undergoing differentiated training, is also expected to be fit for the match. The atmosphere in Avellino is electric, with fans buzzing about the potential return to Serie B after a lengthy absence.
In the lead-up to the match, the team has received significant encouragement from their supporters, who have been vocal in their anticipation. The prospect of promotion has invigorated the community, with many fans planning to travel to Potenza to support their team, despite the limited ticket availability.
The match represents more than just a game; it is a chance for Avellino to reclaim their status in Italy’s second division, a goal they have been striving towards for several seasons. With the stakes so high, both teams will be looking to secure a crucial victory.
As the clock ticks down to match day, both players and fans alike are gearing up for what promises to be an exhilarating encounter. The excitement is palpable, and the hope for a successful campaign is alive in the hearts of Avellino supporters. Will they achieve their long-awaited return to Serie B? Only time will tell as they prepare to face Sorrento in this pivotal match.
