The visiting Cittadella side should be favourites in this visit to Livorno, as the away team holds a 25 point advantage from their 28 league games this season.
Livorno form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Serie B this season. Livorno, who have the most conceded goals (28) at home in Serie B, have only managed 3 wins, 2 draws and 8 losses from their games here at Stadio Armando Picchi. With seven home Serie B games in a row without a win, the Livorno fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Juve Stabia game long ago, can be stopped today.
In their previous game, the manager R. Breda led his Livorno to a defeat in the Serie B match away at Pisa. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stadio Armando Picchi. The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 2-2 versus Frosinone.
This is expected to be a close game, with Livorno perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Livorno as a small favourite), we find 13 games. Livorno has won four of these, drawn two and lost seven.
Livorno has scored 17 league goals at home this season, in 13 matches. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Livorno with 28 goals conceded in these matches.
