Frosinone form and stats

The story so far in the Serie B for Frosinone at their home stadium (Stadio Benito Stirpe) is 8 wins, 6 draws and 2 defeats. Frosinone has won so many consecutive home games (four in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Stadio Benito Stirpe. We remember; it was Como.

Stress levels are on the rise for Frosinone's attacking players as they have now played 214 minutes without scoring in a league game. Vogliacco (own goal) was their last goal scorer.

In their previous game, the manager Grosso led his Frosinone to a defeat away at Pordenone. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stadio Benito Stirpe. Ciano, who usually features in attack, was the top performer for the side in that match, earning a rating of 7.52 (out of 10). Ciano hit four key passes.

A defeat was the result before that one, 0-1 away at Lecce.

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 Frosinone have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found nine matches with the results: Won three, drawn five and lost one.

A decent goal production from Frosinone in their home games so far, with 27 goals from 16 league matches. Frosinone have only conceded 12 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 0 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.
