The Pontedera manager I. Maraia attacks this game with the team placed 8th so far. In the visitors dressing room Novara and their manager S. Banchieri are in 3rd place before this match.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
This stadium uses grass, unlike Novara's home stadium. The visitors last 39 games on grass have ended in 12 wins, 13 draws and 14 losses.
Pontedera form and stats
As mentioned below, Pontedera are feasting on a winning streak here so far with maximum points from their first 2 Serie C: Girone A games. The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Stadio Ettore Mannucci.
Pontedera's previous game was a Serie C: Girone A match also played at home, ending 3-2 versus Olbia (placed 6th). The home side are looking to build on that result. A defeat was the result before that one, 0-4 away at Renate.
At Stadio Ettore Mannucci, Pontedera has the goal stats of 6-3 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.
Novara form and stats
Novara have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Serie C: Girone A were 7 victories, 9 draws and 3 defeats from 19 fixtures. Novara seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
Novara are travelling after their nice 3-0 home win in the Serie C: Girone A against Lecco (placed 15th). Prior to that match, the Novara manager S. Banchieri faced defeat when travelling to Monza and losing 0-2.
0 goals so far away for Novara, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 2. All from 1 league match away.
