Brescia form and stats

Overall Serie B stats at home this season for Brescia are 3-3-2 (wins-draw-losses).

Brescia are returning here after visiting SPAL in a Serie B game and winning with a 3-2 scoreline. Filip Jagiełło, Alfredo Donnarumma and Birkir Bjarnason scored the goal(s). Ahead of that match, Brescia lost 1-3 at home to Empoli.

The victory against SPAL came after Birkir Bjarnason's winning goal. The Brescia manager L. López Breijo was very happy afterwards with the decision to bring on that player in the 76th minute.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Brescia have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found eight games) they have won five times, drawn two and lost one.

Brescia can score goals in their home matches. After 8 league matches they have found the net 16 times. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Brescia defense is not exactly impregnable. 12 goals conceded from 8 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Vicenza form and stats

There's been little loot from Vicenza's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 8 away games in the Serie B. Vicenza only have 2 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 2 draws. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Vicenza have lost on their last two travels.

Vicenza's previous game was their home loss versus Virtus Entella (0-1). Preceding that game, the 1-2 loss visiting Lecce's place.

Vicenza are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is one win, zero draws and three defeats. From a total of four matches.

Vicenza find the net regularly in their away games. 10 goals from 8 away fixtures in the league. Vicenza struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 14 goals conceded from these games. It's worth mentioning that 7 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
