Mantova form and stats

Mantova have only collected 4 points from their away games in the Serie C: Girone A, after 0-4-2 (6 played). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Mantova have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone ten consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Ravenna game.

Home advantage was not enough for Mantova in their previous game, as they lost their Serie C: Girone A-match, hosting Südtirol, 0-1.

Prior to that match, the Mantova manager M. Lauro faced defeat when travelling to Triestina and losing 1-2.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found eleven similar matches played by Mantova in our archives, and the results are: one win for Mantova, seven draws and three defeats.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Mantova have scored 6 goals in 6 league games away. Mantova have conceded 8 goals in these away matches.
