There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

It's quite the trip for Crotone when visiting Brescia as the cities are 1100 kilometers apart.

Brescia form and stats

Brescia have only played one Serie B game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 9 wins, 5 draws and 5 defeats from 19 matches.

Happy days for Brescia in their previous game, a Serie B match away at Alessandria (placed 18th) that ended with a 3-1 victory. Filip Jagiełło (midfield was the top team player in that game with a rating of 7.61/10. Jagiełło scored one goal, hit two key passes, dribled passed the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 28 successful passes (of 34 total).

In the preceding match a 2-0 victory visiting Ternana.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Brescia's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played four games, won two matches, drawn one and lost one.

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

Brescia has scored 5 goals so far and conceded 1 goal from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.

Crotone form and stats

The visitors' first away game in the Serie B ended in defeat. Last season Crotone had these away match statistics: Played 19; won 1, drew 3 and lost 15.

Crotone delivered a 1-1 draw playing at home against Reggina (placed 8th) in their previous match; a Serie B game. Salvatore Molina got a match rating of 7.42 in that game, top player of the team. Molina hit two key passes and dribled passed the opponent 1 of 2 times.

Ahead of that game was the 2-2 draw at home against Como.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Crotone playing away, we found three games. Results were zero away wins, one draw and two home wins.

A quick return to home after this game, as Crotone are hosting Lecce in the Serie B only four days away.

It's early days yet, but Crotone has scored 2 and conceded 4 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).

Head 2 Head

Head to head numbers (for the former ten meetings): Brescia won four games, three matches ended in a draw and Crotone have three wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: seven / three
