Perugia form and stats

The story so far in the Serie B for Perugia at their home stadium (Stadio Renato Curi) is 4 wins, 8 draws and 5 defeats.

A good away victory last time out for Perugia, who won 2-1 against Vicenza (placed 18th). Curado, defender, was given a rating of 7.75/10 in that game, top of the team. Curado scored one goal and won 10 of 14 duels.

Before that, Perugia drew at home versus Pisa.

5 wins, 7 draws and 5 losses. That’s the product of Parma playing as the away team in the Serie B this season.

Tutino was the last player to score for the away team. Parma haven't scored a league goal in the last 185 minutes.

This fixture can not go any worse than the last one, the home loss versus Ascoli with 0-1 on the scoreboard. Midfield player García was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.8/10. García hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times and had 52 successful passes (of 59 total).

A 0-1 defeat away at Brescia before that.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 13 similar matches played by Parma in our archives, and the results are: three wins for Parma, six draws and four defeats.
