The Serie B season is still fresh and sports bettors should be cautious. This meeting between Spezia and Trapani promises to be an interesting one.

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Serie B game only four days ago.

Trapani play their home games on grass, while this game is played on artificial turf. Recent stats for Trapani when playing on artificial turf are 1 win, 0 draws and 2 defeats from three matches. They have scored 3 goals and conceded 4 times in these games. Trapani have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1400 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Trapani form and stats

It's not happening yet for Trapani on their Serie B travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on F. Baldini, the Trapani manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

There were no winners in Trapani's previous match, a Serie B home game that ended 0-0 vs Cremonese (placed 12th). The game before that, was lost at home, a 0-1 defeat against Salernitana.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Trapani playing away, we found two games. Results were 0 away wins, 0 draws and 2 home wins.

As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Trapani has managed 1 goal and let in 5 from 2 matches.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: 1 win for Spezia, 3 draws and 6 wins for Trapani. Over 2,5 goals: 5 times; under 2,5 goals: 5 games.
