Insights:
  • Juve Stabia have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Vibonese have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

Stabia have less rest than Vibonese in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Serie C: Girone C game only four days ago. This match was also played here at Stadio Comunale Romeo Menti. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Vibonese have had more rest.

2-0-1 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Vibonese when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those three matches are 5-3 (scored/conceded).

Juve Stabia form and stats

Juve Stabia have collected 16 points from their Serie C: Girone C home games so far after 5-1-4. Juve Stabia has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager P. Padalino and the players. Stabia are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Stadio Comunale Romeo Menti, having lost their two previous games here.

The Stabia fans got no joy from their last match, a Serie C: Girone C game also here at Stadio Comunale Romeo Menti: A 0-2 defeat against Casertana (placed 9th). A defeat was the result before that one, 2-4 away at Monopoli.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Juve Stabia handle that role? We have found six games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are two wins, one draw and three defeats.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Catania are coming to town in three days.

The Stabia fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 12 in 10 matches. Stabia have conceded 11 in these home matches.
