An important duel in the bottom section of the league table, with both teams experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic “six-pointer” with the home team placed 14th and the visitors in 18th place.
It's no vacation for neither Venezia nor Livorno as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Venezia form and stats
Overall Serie B stats at home this season for Venezia are 1-1-3 (wins-draw-losses).
The Venezia supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Livorno in Serie B and win 1-0. 1-1 away at Ascoli before that.
This is expected to be a close game, with Venezia perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Venezia as a small favourite), we find 17 games. Venezia has won 8 of these, drawn 7 and lost 2.
Venezia have scored 4 league goals here from 5 matches, not a lot. Venezia have conceded 7 in these home matches.
Livorno form and stats
As the visiting team in Serie B matches, Livorno, who have the fewest points (1) away in Serie B, have produced an overall stat of 0-1-4 so far. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on R. Breda, the Livorno manager, as the last three away games were defeats.
It might be tough going out on the road again for Livorno, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-1 versus Venezia (placed 14th). A home win before that, celebrating 2-1 vs Juve Stabia.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found seven similar matches played by Livorno in our archives, and the results are: 2 wins for Livorno, 2 draws and 3 defeats.
Livorno are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 1 goal from 5 away games. As opposed to that, Livorno have seen the ball go into their own net 6 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
The two sides played each other earlier this season: Venezia - Livorno 1-0. H2H stats regardless of arena (last three matches): Venezia 1 win, 1 draw and Livorno 1 victory. As for goals, 0 matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), 3 games had two or less.Top Goalscorers
