3-1-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Serie B numbers at home for Cittadella so far this season.

Happy days for Cittadella in their previous game, a Serie B match away at Reggina (placed 5th) that ended with a 1-0 victory.

The goalie Elhan Kastrati was named most valuable player of the team in that game, scoring 8.43 out of ten. Kastrati stopped the opponent with six saves and topped it up with a clean sheet.
