Perugia form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Serie C: Girone B travels is 3 wins, 3 draws and 1 defeat. In general it has been a productive period now for Perugia as they haven't lost any of their last eleven games. One point away has become something of a habit for Perugia who have played out draws in their last three away games.

Perugia's last game was the home draw against Virtus Verona (2-2). That result followed a home victory 2-0 versus Imolese.

The match against Virtus Verona looked like a defeat for Perugia, but they did not accept the outcome and clawed their way back to 2-2. F. Melchiorri equalized in the 86th minute.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 18 similar matches played by Perugia in our archives, and the results are: three wins for Perugia, six draws and nine defeats.
