Match begins: 19:00 (UTC)

It's early days in the Serie B and the teams are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Salernitana form and stats

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

Happy days for Salernitana in their previous game, a Serie B match away at Trapani (placed 20th) that ended with a 1-0 victory. Preceding that match was a defeat to Benevento (0-2).

This is expected to be a close game, with Salernitana perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Salernitana as a small favourite), we find 17 games. Salernitana has won 10 of these, drawn 4 and lost 3.

There will be little rest for Salernitana after this match as they are travelling to Livorno for a Serie B game in only four days.

Salernitana has scored 3 goals so far and conceded 3 goals from 2 home games. These are numbers from the league only.

Chievo form and stats

Things could have gone better for Chievo in their Serie B away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.

There were no winners in Chievo's previous match, a Serie B home game that ended 2-2 vs Pisa (placed 5th). Before that one, a nice away victory 2-0 at Venezia.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found three similar matches played by Chievo in our archives, and the results are: 2 wins for Chievo, 1 draw and 0 defeats.

A new game in only four days for Chievo, the Serie B home match versus Pordenone. Busy days.

Chievo have the goal stats of 3-2 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last one meeting between these two teams are: 1 win for Salernitana, 0 draws and 0 wins for Chievo. Over 2,5 goals: 0 times; under 2,5 goals: 1 game.
