Ascoli hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 32 points and a 17th position in the Serie B table. Visiting Perugia holds 13th place with 36 pts.
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Serie B match only four days ago. Thankfully the previous game, versus Cremonese, was also a home game here at Stadio Cino e Lillo Del Duca. The away team is better rested.
Ascoli form and stats
Ascoli have played 13 Serie B games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 7-3-3 (wins-draws-losses).
The Ascoli crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 1-3 to Cremonese here at Stadio Cino e Lillo Del Duca in a Serie B match. Heartbreak before that as Ascoli lost 0-3 at Virtus Entella's place.
A decent goal production from Ascoli in their home games so far, with 20 goals from 13 league matches. Ascoli have conceded 14 in these home matches.
Perugia form and stats
Perugia have only collected 12 points from their away games in the Serie B, after 3-3-7 (13 played). The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Perugia have lost on their last two travels.
Perugia won their last game, 1-0 versus Salernitana played at home. The game before that, was lost at home, a 1-2 defeat against Benevento.
The visitors have scored 12 goals from 13 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Perugia's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 21 goals from these trips.
