Perugia are welcoming Pescara for another important game after their 1-2 result against Pescara.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Perugia are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. For Pescara most of the excitement is over as they will neither be promoted or relegated this season.

Perugia form and stats

7 victories, 5 draws and 7 defeats. That’s what Perugia have to build on here at Stadio Renato Curi in the Serie B. Perugia has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager M. Oddo and the players.

In their previous game, the manager M. Oddo led his Perugia to a defeat in the Serie B match away at Pescara. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stadio Renato Curi. A defeat was the result before that one, 1-3 away at Venezia.

The Perugia fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 19 in 19 matches. Perugia have conceded 19 in these home matches.
