Cosenza form and stats

Cosenza have only collected 5 points from their away games in the Serie B, after 1-2-3 (6 played). With the Cosenza losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.

Cosenza might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Frosinone proved too strong as Cosenza slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Stadio San Vito-Luigi Marulla. Venturi, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.75. Venturi won 7 of 11 duels.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against SPAL wasn't a success with a 0-5 loss.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of Cosenza when being an outsider away as they are today, we find 10 matches with the visitors losing 6 times, drawing 3 and winning 1 game.

Possible goal fest! This team have played 5 consecutive league matches all ending with three or more goals (over 2.5 goals).

There's been a serious shortage of goals from Cosenza's away games in the league this season with only {3 goals} from 6 matches. As for defending, Cosenza rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 11 goals from these away matches.

Head 2 Head

Pisa have put together a sequence of 4 consecutive matches without defeat (2-2-0) when playing Cosenza.
