Vicenza - Crotone: Serie B dungeon teams hungry for points and praise. Check out all the relevant stats and information before the match!

Insights:
  • Crotone have the fewest points (3) away in Serie B

It's time to recharge all electronic entertainment devices for Crotone, who are travelling more than 1100 kilometers to play this game.

It's no vacation for neither Vicenza nor Crotone 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.

Vicenza form and stats

Vicenza's struggle is real here at Stadio Romeo Menti with only 16 points collected from 16 Serie B games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 4-4-8. When Vicenza hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like SPAL, Alessandria, Parma, Vicenza, Cosenza and Pordenone), they have won 2 of 5 matches!

Vicenza faced defeat in their previous match, away at Brescia (0-2).

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Ascoli in a game that was won 2-0.

The manager Brocchi will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Benevento in only four days.

Vicenza are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 18 goals in 16 games. Vicenza's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 22 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches. Vicenza has at home met teams with this table position (low), five times. It has ended with less than 2.5 goals 4 of 5 times.

Crotone form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Crotone so far with only 3 points returning home. The records show 0-3-13 (win-draw-lose). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in 18 away games in a row.

Crotone played 1-1 against Perugia in their previous match. Attacker Marić got a player rating of 7.82 in the game. "Man of the match" Marić scored one goal, hit three key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times.

A 0-1 defeat away at Monza before that.

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 Crotone playing away, we found six games. Results were zero away wins, one draw and five home wins.

A new game in only four days for Crotone, the Serie B home match versus Ternana. Busy days.

The attacking power of Crotone when travelling is not overwhelming with 13 goals scored from 16 league matches away. Crotone's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 31 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

The newest registered meeting between these participants is the Crotone - Vicenza 0-1 played not long ago this season. Statistics for the former ten meetings between these two sides are: two wins for Vicenza, five draws and three wins for Crotone. Over 2,5 goals: two times; under 2,5 goals: eight games.
