Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Virtus Entella & Pisa face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Coppa Italia. All the pre-match information is available here!
There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Serie B game only four days ago. That game, against Empoli, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Pisa.
Virtus Entella's stadium, Stadio Comunale Chiavari, has a artifical turf surface. Pisa have grass on their own stadium. This might or might not make a difference, and to help evaluate that we give you the recent performance numbers for Pisa when playing on artifical turf; 4 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses from eight matches. They have scored 12 goals in these games and conceded 10.

Pisa form and stats
The traveling awayteam has defeated Juve Stabia in order to reach 3rd Round of Coppa Italia. Pisa was sent out of Coppa Italia in the 3rd round last season.The Serie B season is young and Pisa have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 2 defeats so far. Pisa seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

Pisa find the net regularly in their away games. 4 goals from 3 away fixtures in the league. The Pisa defense is as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle, having conceded 9 goals in their away games.
