Imolese form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Serie C: Girone B this season. Imolese have only managed 1 win, 2 draws and 3 losses from their games here at Stadio Romeo Galli. Imolese has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager R. Cevoli and the players. With Imolese having lost three times in a row here, the pressure is increasing on the manager R. Cevoli.

A. Polidori was the last player to score a league goal for Imolese and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Imolese haven't scored in 510 minutes.

The Imolese crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-3 to Sudtirol here at Stadio Romeo Galli in a Serie C: Girone B match. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Triestina (0-1).

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Imolese have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found seven games) they have won four times, drawn one and lost two.

Imolese aren't scoring a lot here at Stadio Romeo Galli in the league, with only 4 goals from 6 games. On the other hand, Imolese have conceded 8 goals.

Arezzo form and stats

The visitors, who have the fewest clean sheets (0) in Serie C: Girone B, are W0-D2-L3 on the road this term. That's in the Serie C: Girone B. The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Arezzo, who have now gone ten games without a victory. The Pro Patria game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since.

Arezzo play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-2 to Mantova (placed 7th). A 2-2 draw was the result before that, hosting Triestina.

Arezzo are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is zero wins, four draws and four defeats. From a total of eight matches.

After this away game Arezzo return home for a Serie C: Girone B game against Sambenedettese. That game is only four sleeps after this.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Arezzo have scored 5 goals in 5 league games away. The Arezzo manager D. Di Donato has some worries about the defense as 11 goals have been conceded in these travels.
