Venue: Stadio Oreste Granillo (27763 seats)

Season ticket holders at Stadio Oreste Granillo haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Reggina languishing in the 15th position so far. The guesting Brescia will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

Insights:
  • Reggina is in the worst form (0-2-4)
  • Brescia haven’t played a single 0-0 game.

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.

Brescia have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1200 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Reggina form and stats

When playing at home in the Serie B, Reggina have managed 1 win, 1 draw and suffered 2 defeats from 4 games. It's trouble wherever Reggina are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Reggina, their manager D. Toscano and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

Reggina are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-1 away versus Monza. Preceding that match was a defeat to Pisa (1-2).

This is expected to be a close game, with Reggina perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Reggina as a small favourite), we find ten games. Reggina has won five of these, drawn three and lost two.

Reggina are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 4 goals in 4 games. 4 goals have been conceded.
