Struggling Venezia will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Cittadella in the upcoming league round. It's 17th vs 5th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Venezia form and stats
Venezia's struggle is real here at Stadio Pierluigi Penzo with only 8 points collected from 8 Serie B games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-2-4.
M. Aramu was the last player to score a league goal for Venezia and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Venezia haven't scored in 181 minutes.

There will be little rest for Venezia after this match as they are travelling to Perugia for a Serie B game in only three days.

The visitors are W3-D2-L3 on the road this term. That's in the Serie B.
There were no winners in Cittadella's previous match, a Serie B home game that ended 1-1 vs Chievo (placed 7th). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Ascoli wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.
After this away game Cittadella return home for a Serie B game against Virtus Entella. That game is only three sleeps after this.
The visitors have scored 7 goals from 8 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (7 so far).
