Pro Sesto form and stats

The visitors are W4-D0-L3 on the road this term. That's in the Serie C: Girone A. Recent form does not give Pro Sesto much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Alessandria will be a tough nut to crack.

Sesto have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 290 minutes ago. A. de Respinis was the goal scorer.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Serie C: Girone A home defeat versus Pontedera with 0-2 on the scoreboard. Preceding that game, the 0-6 loss visiting Piacenza's place.

After this away game Pro Sesto return home for a Serie C: Girone A game against Grosseto. That game is only three sleeps after this.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Sesto have scored 8 goals in 7 league games away. In the opposite end, Pro Sesto have conceded 11 goals in their away games.
