This could be an interesting match as Perugia have their presumed home advantage while Crotone are ahead 11 points in the Serie B table.

7 victories, 3 draws and 5 defeats. That’s what Perugia have to build on here at Stadio Renato Curi in the Serie B.
The Perugia goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 192 minutes without conceding a goal in the Serie B.
A strong away win for Perugia against Ascoli the last match, as Hans Nicolussi Caviglia were on target. Previous to that game, a home match hosting Salernitana in a game that was won 1-0.
The manager S. Cosmi will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Cittadella in only three days.
