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

A strong away win for Ternana against Parma the last match, as Donnarumma, Coulibaly and Corrado were on target. Tacchio (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 8.02/10. Tacchio dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 34 successful passes (of 40 total).

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

Perugia form and stats

It's not happening yet for Perugia on their Serie B travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? Perugia has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Impressive finishing from Strizzolo secured the home win 1-0 against Ascoli in their previous game. That victory felt good as this club had gone four league fixtures without victory. Midfielder Casasola was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.92. Casasola served one assist, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Brescia wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Perugia playing away and similar expectations, we found 13 relevant matches. Results were 4 Perugia wins, 3 draws and 6 defeats.

It's early days yet, but Perugia has scored 1 and conceded 4 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).

Head 2 Head

Ternana have managed a sequence of 5 consecutive matches without losing (3-2-0) when facing Perugia.
