5th position in the Serie B table for Cittadella so far, a good performance. The home supporters hope for more joy as 7th-placed Chievo visits.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Cittadella form and stats
Overall Serie B stats at home this season for Cittadella are 4-2-2 (wins-draw-losses).
In their previous game, the manager R. Venturato led his Cittadella to a defeat in the Serie B match away at Ascoli. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stadio Pier Cesare Tombolato. Before that game, the 4-3 home victory against Salernitana.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Cittadella have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found ten matches with the results: Won 3 Drawn 3 Lost 4.
Cittadella has scored 11 league goals at home this season, in 8 matches. 11 goals have been conceded.
Chievo form and stats
The visitors are W2-D3-L3 on the road this term. That's in the Serie B. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Chievo are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.
The manager M. Marcolini was unhappy after their last game, a Serie B match played at their home ground Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi. Chievo suffered a 2-3 loss to Juve Stabia (placed 17th). A home win before that, celebrating 1-0 vs Cremonese.
A huge disappointment for Chievo in their last match (vs Juve Stabia). Leading 2-0 the victory seemed almost certain, but a fascinating collapse turned everything around and in the end all points were lost in a 2-3 defeat.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found seven similar matches played by Chievo in our archives, and the results are: 3 wins for Chievo, 4 draws and 0 defeats.
