This has all the signs of another engaging battle at Stadio Nereo Rocco in the Serie C: Girone A. Triestina is in 16th position and host Lecco in 5th position. Learn more about the match here!

Little time to rest for the host team, as they played a Serie C: Girone A game only four days back. That game was an away game at Juventus U23, so at least Triestina are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Triestina form and stats

Two Serie C: Girone A home games so far for Triestina, who are yet to win here at Stadio Nereo Rocco. Only 2 points so far. In general it's been a long time since Triestina tasted defeat here at Stadio Nereo Rocco, as they have taken at least one point from their last twelve home games in the league.

No payout for Triestina in their previous match, an away game at Juventus U23 that ended in defeat 1-2. Heartbreak for Triestina in their last match as Juventus U23's M. Ake scored the winning goal deep into overtime.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Calcio Padova (0-2).

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Triestina have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 14 games) they have won five times, drawn six and lost three.

The manager C. Bucchi will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Pro Sesto in only three days.

Early season league goal statistics from Triestina's 2 home games: 2 goals, 2 conceded.

Lecco form and stats

Things could have gone better for Lecco in their Serie C: Girone A away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.

The Lecco goalkeeper Marco Pissardo is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 200 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.

Lecco go into this game after a win, the home game against FeralpiSalò that ended 1-0.

Ahead of that match was the victory versus Giana Erminio at their stadium, the result 1-0.

Lecco are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is four wins, two draws and three defeats. From a total of nine matches.

A quick return to home after this game, as Lecco are hosting Pro Patria in the Serie C: Girone A only three days away.

Lecco have the goal stats of 1-1 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.
