Mantova oppose Piacenza for fame and success.

Insights:
  • Mantova have the most dropped points from leading position (6) in Serie C: Girone A

Piacenza could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Serie C: Girone A game only four sleeps ago. That game, against Virtus Verona, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Piacenza.

Mantova form and stats

A Serie C: Girone A draw at home so far for Mantova. Last season their home statistics were 6 wins, 5 draws and 8 defeats from 19 matches.

The fans are hoping that Mantova will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the Serie C: Girone A game against AlbinoLeffe (placed 3rd).

Before that, Mantova played out a draw 1-1 when visiting FeralpiSalò.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Mantova have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found five matches with the results: Won zero, drawn one and lost four.

There will be little rest for Mantova after this match as they are travelling to Trento Calcio 1921 for a Serie C: Girone A game in only three days.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Mantova at home in the league. 1 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.

Piacenza form and stats

Things could have gone better for Piacenza in their Serie C: Girone A away matches, but 2 points from 2 games is all right. Piacenza has showed their ability to avoid defeat with four draws in a row, but are also dodging victories. They last avoided the draw 28 days ago, in the Trento Calcio 1921 fixture.

Piacenza has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Virtus Verona for a Serie C: Girone A game that ended a draw (1-1).

Preceding that match was the 1-1 draw at home vs Pro Patria.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Piacenza playing away and similar expectations, we found 13 relevant matches. Results were three Piacenza wins, eight draws and two defeats.

A quick return to home after this game, as Piacenza are hosting Legnago Salus in the Serie C: Girone A only three days away.

3 goals so far away for Piacenza, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 3. All from 2 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

Mantova-Piacenza H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Mantova five wins, Piacenza one win, four draws. four of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
