It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Atalanta and Crotone.

Crotone have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1100 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Crotone form and stats

There's been little loot from Crotone's travels as they have only collected 2 points from 12 away games in the Serie A. Crotone, who have the most conceded goals (57) in Serie A, only have 0 wins to counter their 10 defeats and 2 draws. Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in 13 away games in a row. It's looking increasingly bleak for Crotone who now has to deal with a six game losing streak. Benevento was the last time a defeat was avoided.

A. Ounas was the last player to score for the away team. Crotone haven't scored a league goal in the last 244 minutes.

Home advantage was not enough for Crotone in their previous game, as they lost their Serie A-match, hosting Cagliari, 0-2. Preceding that game, the 0-3 loss visiting Juventus's place.

As mentioned above, the bookmakers do not believe the away team will get anything from this match. Checking Crotone's match history for similar games we find two matches. The home team won two of these as expected, two of them by at least two goals. Crotone managed zero draws and zero surprise wins.

A quick return to home after this game, as Crotone are hosting Torino in the Serie A only four days away.

The visitors have scored 9 goals from 12 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. People interested in "over 2,5 goals" betting will like to know that Crotone concede an average of more than 2,5 goals per away match all on their own.

Head 2 Head

These teams' last encounter with each other was the Crotone - Atalanta 1-2 earlier this season. H2H stats regardless of arena (last nine matches): Atalanta six wins, two draws and Crotone one victory. As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five games had two or less.
