An important duel in the bottom section of the Serie D: Girone I, with both Roccella and Rende experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 18th and the visitors in 17th place.

Insights:
  • Roccella have the fewest scored goals (13) in Serie D: Girone I
  • Rende have the most matches under the total-line (9) in Serie D: Girone I

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Serie D: Girone I. That game was an away game at Castrovillari, so at least Roccella are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Roccella form and stats

Roccella's struggle is real here at Stadio Comunale Ninetto Muscolo with only 5 points collected from 11 Serie D: Girone I games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-2-8. All in all it has been a very rough period for Roccella who hasn’t won a league-game in their last eleven attempts. Their previous win was against Paternò, 48 days ago. With eight home Serie D: Girone I games in a row without a win, the Roccella fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Troina game long ago, can be stopped today.

A defeat was the result before that one, 1-5 away at ACR Messina.

Roccella are traveling soon after this match as the Serie D: Girone I match at Marina di Ragusa awaits in three days.

Roccella aren't scoring a lot here at Stadio Comunale Ninetto Muscolo in the league, with only 7 goals from 11 games. 16 goals have been conceded.
