Frosinone form and stats

4-8-6 (win-draw-lost) are the Serie B numbers at home for Frosinone so far this season.

A strong away win for Frosinone against SPAL the last match, as Andrija Novakovich were on target. Ahead of that match, Frosinone won a home game hosting Pisa (3-1).

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 six matches with the results: Won three, 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 Reggina in the Serie B. That match is three days after this one.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Frosinone here at Stadio Benito Stirpe in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (15 from 18 games). On the other hand, Frosinone have conceded 20 goals. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.

Vicenza form and stats

The visitors are W6-D5-L7 on the road this term. That's in the Serie B.

Vicenza might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Brescia proved too strong as Vicenza slumped to a 0-3 defeat in front of their own fans at Stadio Romeo Menti. Preceding that game was the away victory against Virtus Entella with the score of 2-1.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found ten similar matches played by Vicenza in our archives, and the results are: four wins for Vicenza, four draws and two defeats.

After this away game Vicenza return home for a Serie B game against Reggiana. That game is only three sleeps after this.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Vicenza have scored 25 goals in 18 league games away. Vicenza have conceded 28 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Vicenza - Frosinone 0-0. Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: four wins for Frosinone, two draws and four wins for Vicenza. Over 2,5 goals: three times; under 2,5 goals: seven games.
