Salernitana form and stats

29 points is a decent return from 14 Serie B games here at Stadio Arechi for Salernitana. The data says 8 wins, 5 draws and 1 loss. In general it's been a long time since Salernitana tasted defeat here at Stadio Arechi, as they have taken at least one point from their last twelve home games in the league.

Salernitana lost their last game at Virtus Entella (placed 9th) after a 0-1 scoreline. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Pisa that ended 1-1.

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 19 games. Salernitana has won eleven of these, drawn five and lost three.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Salernitana as they have a new game in only four days, a Serie B match thankfully also at home. Juve Stabia are visiting.
