The previous season, Cittadella's league statistics were 15 wins, 12 draws and 11 losses, ending with 6th spot in the Serie B. From these 38 matches they scored 48 goals and let in 35. Appearing at their own stadium in the former season Cittadella generated 9-7-3 (win-draw-lost) with 25 goals and 14 conceded.

This is expected to be a close game, with Cittadella perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Cittadella as a small favourite), we find 14 games. Cittadella has won eight of these, drawn two and lost four.

With the first game of the season soon underway, it's time to look at the results from the Cittadella friendly games in pre-season: Cittadella played two friendlies, won 1, drew 1 and lost 0. If you are really into statistics you might appreciate knowing that Cittadella scored 2 goals and conceded 0 in these two games.
