Piacenza form and stats

The story so far in the Serie C: Girone A for Piacenza at their home stadium (Stadio Leonardo Garilli) is 1 win, 2 draws and 1 defeat. Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.

Piacenza drew their last game, also a home match. Renate (placed 3rd) was the opponent, 3-3 the score. A strong away win before that one, visiting Lecco and winning 4-2.

There was plenty of action in the dying minutes of the game against Renate as J. Gonzi's goal in the 88th minute completed a cancellation of 1-3 and secured a draw after 90 minutes. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

Pro Patria form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Serie C: Girone A travels is 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat.

Home advantage was not enough for Patria in their previous game, as they lost their Serie C: Girone A-match, hosting Pro Sesto, 1-2. Preceding that game was the away victory against Pergolettese with the score of 2-1.

Late heartbreak for Patria in the Pro Sesto match, as the deciding 1-2 goal came deep into overtime.

After this away game Pro Patria return home for a Serie C: Girone A game against AlbinoLeffe. That game is only four sleeps after this.

The visitors have scored 3 goals from 4 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. The Patria defense is a tough nut to crack, having conceded less than half a goal per away game on average (2 goals in 4 games).

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last two meetings: two - zero - zero (Piacenza wins - draws - Pro Patria wins). As for goals, one match ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), one had two or less.
