Vicenza form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Vicenza so far with only 8 points returning home. The records show 2-2-12 (win-draw-lose). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Vicenza's last three away games as they have all been lost.

Vicenza delivered a 1-1 draw playing at home against Crotone (placed 19th) in their previous match. Crecco was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.1. The defender Crecco hit two key passes and won 1 of 3 duels.

Preceding that game, the 0-2 loss visiting Brescia's place.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Vicenza as they have only managed to score 13 times from 16 away games in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches.

Head 2 Head

These teams met each other before this match year: Vicenza - Benevento 2-3. Head-2-head stats last four meetings: one - two - one (Benevento wins - draws - Vicenza wins). As for goals, two matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), two had two or less.
