Pistoiese will hope to utilise their home advantage to help bridge the gap to today’s opponents. The home side are currently 14 points behind Monza.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Pistoiese form and stats
The story so far in the Serie C: Girone A for Pistoiese at their home stadium (Stadio Marcello Melani) is 2 wins, 4 draws and 1 defeat.
Pistoiese are returning here after visiting Juventus U23 in a Serie C: Girone A game and winning with a 2-0 scoreline. Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Pianese.
Pistoiese are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 7 goals in 7 attempts. Pistoiese are not conceding a lot of goals here at Stadio Marcello Melani in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 6 from 7 matches.
Monza form and stats
Rock solid. That's the only way to describe the travels of Monza so far, with 6-1-0 (wins-draws-losses) so far. Those are Serie C: Girone A statistics. The away team travel with confidence. Not since the AlbinoLeffe game have they lost an away game, meaning Monza has taken points from eight away matches in a row.
Monza's last game was the home draw against Carrarese (2-2). A 2-3 loss hosting Pro Patria before that.
Monza have scored more than twice on average per away game (in the league), an impressive attacking display. They have 17 goals from 7 away matches. Monza are tighter than a frog's bottom, as only 3 away goals have been conceded so far.
