This match features two teams living in the basement of the Serie B, Carpi holding 19th place and Crotone lying 17th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Carpi form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories so far this season, with Carpi, who have the most conceded goals (22) at home in Serie B, only managing 2 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses so far from their games here at Stadio Sandro Cabassi.In their previous game, the manager F. Castori led his Carpi to a defeat in the Serie B match away at Palermo. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stadio Sandro Cabassi. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Ascoli that ended 1-1.
The Serie B match against Benevento is next on the list for Carpi, coming up only three days after this. It is played on a neutral arena.
The Carpi fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium, the tally being 13 in 13 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Carpi defense is not exactly impregnable. 22 goals conceded from 13 games.
Crotone form and stats

A quick return to home after this game, as Crotone are hosting Perugia in the Serie B only three.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Crotone as they have only managed to score 10 times from 14 away games. 19 goals have been conceded by Crotone in these games.
