Reggina form and stats

Only two Serie B home games for Reggina so far, yet both highs and lows with 1 win, 1 draw and 0 defeat.

Reggina manager A. Aglietti and his team return home after a 1-1 draw away versus Crotone (placed 15th) in the Serie B. The forward Andrey Gălăbinov was announced as "man of the match" for Reggina with a rating of 7.41/10. Gălăbinov scored one goal.

The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 0-0 versus Monza.

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 13 games. Reggina has won eight of these, drawn three and lost two.

There will be little rest for Reggina after this match as they are travelling to Pordenone for a Serie B game in only three days.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Reggina at home in the league. 3 on target and 2 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.

SPAL form and stats

The visitors' first away game in the Serie B ended in defeat. Last season SPAL had these away match statistics: Played 19; won 6, drew 8 and lost 5.

SPAL played 1-1 against Monza in their previous match. Attacker Lorenzo Colombo got a player rating of 7.61 in the game. "Man of the match" Colombo scored one goal and dribled passed the opponent 1 of 1 times.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Pisa wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with SPAL playing away and similar expectations, we found six relevant matches. Results were zero SPAL wins, two draws and four defeats.

A quick return to home after this game, as SPAL are hosting Vicenza in the Serie B only three days away.

It's early days yet, but SPAL has scored 0 and conceded 1 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
