Crotone, who have the most conceded goals (83) in Serie A, have only managed 4 wins, 1 draw and 11 losses from their games here at Stadio Ezio Scida. Three consecutive losses here at Stadio Ezio Scida is hard to swallow for the home team. Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.

A strong away win for Crotone against Parma the last match, as Simy (2), Adam Ounas and Lisandro Magallán were on target. Preceding that match was the home game against Sampdoria that was lost 0-1.

As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?
