Benevento form and stats

Benevento have collected 28 points from their Serie B home games so far after 8-4-3.

In their previous game, the manager Caserta led his Benevento to a defeat away at Frosinone. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stadio Ciro Vigorito. Midfielder Acampora was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.81 (out of ten) in that game. Acampora hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 45 successful passes (of 55 total).

2-2 away at Brescia before that.

This is expected to be a close game, with Benevento perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Benevento as a small favourite), we find five games. Benevento has won one of these, drawn three and lost one.

There will be little rest for Benevento after this match as they are travelling to Reggina for a Serie B game in only three days.

Benevento has scored 30 goals so far and conceded 15 goals from 15 home games. These are numbers from the league only.

Prior to that match, the Pisa manager D'Angelo faced defeat when travelling to Ascoli and losing 0-2.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found nine similar matches played by Pisa in our archives, and the results are: two wins for Pisa, three draws and four defeats.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Brescia in just four days.
