Salernitana form and stats

8 victories, 3 draws and 7 defeats. That’s what Salernitana have to build on here. It's trouble wherever Salernitana are playing these days as they have suffered five straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Salernitana, their manager L. Genovese and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

The fans are hoping that Salernitana will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the Serie B game against Pescara. Preceding that match was the home game against Cosenza that was lost 1-2.

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 16 games. Salernitana has won 9 of these, drawn 4 and lost 3.

Salernitana are traveling soon after this match as the Serie B match at Venezia awaits in four days.

Salernitana has scored 26 goals at home this season, in 18 matches. On the other hand, Salernitana have conceded 25 goals.

Venezia form and stats

Venezia have only collected 12 points from their away games after 2-6-10 (18 played).

Venezia play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 3-2 victory visiting Carpi. A draw for Venezia before that, at their own venue hosting Pescara (2-2).

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Venezia playing away and similar expectations, we found twelve relevant matches. Results were 3 Venezia wins, 5 draws and 4 defeats.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Salernitana in just four days.

The attacking power of Venezia when travelling is not overwhelming with 13 goals scored in 18 matches. Venezia have conceded 24 goals in these away matches.
