SPAL form and stats

SPAL have only collected 10 points from their away games in the Serie A, after 3-1-14 (18 played). SPAL are desperate to end a ten-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Parma fixture. Bitter travels for SPAL as they have lost four games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Parma match.

SPAL's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Torino that finished 1-1. Preceding that, the 1-6 home loss versus Roma.

The draw against Torino came from a losing position. The SPAL manager L. Di Biagio brought on Marco D'Alessandro as a substitute and the player scored to make the scores level.

A new game in only three days for SPAL, the Serie A home match versus Fiorentina. Busy days.

The attacking power of SPAL when travelling is not overwhelming with 11 goals scored from 18 league matches away. In the opposite end, SPAL have conceded 34 goals in their away games.
