Frosinone form and stats

As mentioned below, Frosinone are feasting on a winning streak here so far with maximum points from their first 2 Serie B games. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Frosinone after consecutive victories at their own ground.

In their previous game, the manager Grosso led his Frosinone to a defeat away at Cittadella. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stadio Benito Stirpe. The defeat against Cittadella was especially painful as the deciding goal against was scored two minutes into stoppage time (by Beretta). Lucioni was "man of the match" with a rating of 7.62 out of 10. The defender Lucioni hit the woodwork once, hit one key pass and won 7 of 11 duels.

Before that game, the 2-0 home victory against Como.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Frosinone's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played 6 games, won 3 matches, drawn 2 and lost 1.

Frosinone has scored 5 goals so far and conceded 0 goals from 2 home games. These are numbers from the league only.
