Südtirol form and stats

2-5-1 (win-draw-lost) are the Serie B numbers at home for Südtirol so far this season. Three draws in a row here at Stadio Marco Druso for Südtirol, who might be willing to risk more at some point in hope of a win.

Südtirol lost their last game at Genoa (placed 3rd) after a 0-2 scoreline. This team managed a twelve league matches long run without a defeat before that game! Masiello was "man of the match" with a rating of 7.2 out of 10. The defender Masiello hit one key pass and won 8 of 9 duels.

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Frosinone that ended 1-1.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Südtirol have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 8 matches with the results: Won 1, drawn 4 and lost 3.

The Südtirol fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 11 in 8 matches. 10 goals have been conceded. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.

3-1-4 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Ternana in their Serie B matches away. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Ternana have lost on their last two travels.

Ternana go into this game after a win, the home game against Cagliari that ended 1-0. Eureka; their first win in the league after six games not winning. Ternana goalie Iannarilli was high and low in the Cagliari game, contributing six saves towards the victory. Goalkeeper Iannarilli got the top player rating of the team with 9.11/10. Iannarilli saved a penalty and topped it up with a clean sheet.

Prior to that match, the Ternana manager Andreazzoli faced defeat when travelling to Venezia and losing 1-2.
