Frosinone form and stats

Frosinone's results here at Stadio Benito Stirpe in the Serie B have been very modest with 3 victories, 8 draws and 6 defeats. Frosinone are slowly digging their own grave here at Stadio Benito Stirpe with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in eleven attempts. The last victory here came in the Chievo match.

The fans are hoping that Frosinone will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the Serie B game against Pordenone (placed 14th). Preceding that game was the home draw versus Cittadella that ended 1-1.

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 five matches with the results: Won two, drawn two and lost one.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Frosinone as they are travelling to their away game against SPAL in the Serie B. That match is three days after this one.

Pisa form and stats

Pisa have only collected 16 points from their away games in the Serie B, after 4-4-8 (16 played). The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on L. D'Angelo, the Pisa manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

Pisa had fun at their own home (Stadio Benito Stirpe) last time out, beating Cosenza 3-0. Robert Gucher, Marius Marin and Luca Mazzitelli scored. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Chievo wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found nine similar matches played by Pisa in our archives, and the results are: one win for Pisa, three draws and five defeats.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Venezia in just three days.

The visiting Pisa have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 22 goals from 16 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Pisa's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 31 goals from these trips.
