Alessandria form and stats

Let's have a look at how Alessandria performed last season in the Serie C: Girone A: They landed a 2nd position in the league table after playing out 20 victories, 8 draws and 10 defeats. In total they scored 48 and conceded 29 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 8 - drew 5 and lost 6 with 18/15 goals scored/conceded. Alessandria have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Serie B were 8 victories, 5 draws and 6 defeats from 19 fixtures. It's a growing despair in Alessandria as they have recorded three consecutive losses.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Alessandria, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 3-4 versus Benevento (placed 3rd). Simone Corazza, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 8.84. Corazza scored three goals, hit one key pass and dribled passed the opponent 1 of 2 times. A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Alessandria, as mentioned above. 7 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun? Imagine losing a game despite one player scoring three goals? That's the story of Simone Corazza in the match against Benevento.

Prior to that match, the Alessandria manager M. Longo faced defeat when travelling to Sampdoria and losing 2-3.

As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Alessandria has managed 3 goals and let in 4 from 1 match.
