A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The home fans are optimistic that the difference between 2nd and 19th place in the table will show on the pitch.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Carpi form and stats

The loot brought home from travels has not been plentiful for Carpi as they have only collected 11 points from their 13 away games. Carpi only has 3 wins to counter their 8 defeats and 2 draws. Three consecutive losses in away matches means Carpi are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

Carpi delivered a 1-1 draw playing at home against Ascoli in their previous match; a Serie B game. Prior to that match, the Carpi manager F. Castori faced defeat in their match when travelling to Cosenza and losing 0-1.

The attacking power of Carpi when travelling is not overwhelming with 12 goals scored in 26 matches. Carpi have conceded 23 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Carpi - Palermo 0-3. Last seven meetings between the teams: Palermo won 3, Carpi won 2 and 2 draws.
