Pisa hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 30 points and a 16th position in the Serie B table. Visiting Perugia holds 11th place with 33 pts.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Pisa form and stats
When playing at home in the Serie B, Pisa have managed 4 wins, 5 draws and suffered 4 defeats from 13 games.
The Pisa crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 1-2 to Venezia here at Arena Garibaldi - Stadio Romeo Anconetani in a Serie B match. Heartbreak before that as Pisa lost 1-2 at Empoli's place.
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 Pisa have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found five games) they have won two times, drawn two and lost one.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Pisa as they are travelling to their away game against Crotone in the Serie B. That match is three days after this one.
Pisa has scored 18 league goals at home this season, in 13 matches. On the other hand, Pisa have conceded 17 goals.
Perugia form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Perugia so far with only 12 points returning home. The records show 3-3-6 (win-draw-lose). It's a growing despair in Perugia as they have recorded three consecutive losses.
Perugia aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 289 league minutes without a goal. P. Iemmello was the last player to find the net.
The manager S. Cosmi was unhappy after their last game, a Serie B match played at their home ground Stadio Renato Curi. Perugia suffered a 0-1 loss to Empoli (placed 9th). Preceding that game, the 0-1 loss visiting Frosinone's place.
We have checked recent matches where Perugia have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those eight games were two victories, two draws and four defeats.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Benevento in just three days.
Perugia have scored 12 goals on their travels this season, from 12 away games in the league. Perugia have conceded 20 goals in these games.
