Como have restored their energy after their 3-3-match vs Ascoli and are ready to go again when travelling to Palermo. Here's all the knowledge!
- Como have the most conceded goals (26) in Serie B
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 1500 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
It's no vacation for neither Palermo nor Como as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Palermo form and stats
The overall Serie B results at home this season for Palermo are 3-2-3 (wins-draws-losses). When Palermo hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Palermo, SPAL, Venezia, Benevento, Cosenza and Perugia), they have won 1 of 2 matches!
A strong away win for Palermo against Benevento the last match, as Brunori were on target. Bettella, defender, was given a rating of 7.34/10 in that game, top of the team. Bettella won 4 of 6 duels.
Preceding that match was a defeat to Venezia (0-1).The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Palermo have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 13 games) they have won 9 times, drawn 2 and lost 2.
It should be taken into account that a look at the 12 most recent league matches shows that 10 of them qualified as a both teams not to score result (only one or none of the teams scored a goal).
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Palermo as they are travelling to their away game against SPAL in the Serie B. That match is three days after this one.
The Palermo fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 9 in 8 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Palermo has at home met teams with this table position (low), two times. It has ended with less than 2.5 goals 2 of 2 times.
Como form and stats
Como have only collected 3 points from their away games in the Serie B, after 0-3-4 (7 played). Como have had a generous will to share for some time now, running a streak of three draws in a row.
It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Ascoli (placed 9th) in their previous outing. The match ended in a draw 3-3. A mental fixture with an abundance of goals last time out for Como, as mentioned above. 6 goals in that fixture, will this game be as refreshing? As mentioned above, Como drew the match against Ascoli. Manager Longo brought on Blanco to rescue the draw from a losing position and it worked. The attacker Mancuso got a match rating of 8.3 in that game. Mancuso scored two goals.
A draw for Como before that, at their own venue hosting Bari 1908 (1-1).Como are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 3 wins, 4 draws and 4 defeats. From a total of 11 matches.
A new game in only three days for Como, the Serie B home match versus Reggina. Busy days.
Como have scored 8 goals on their travels this season, from 7 away games in the league. It's worth mentioning that 4 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Como have conceded 17 goals in these games.
