Pergolettese form and stats

There's been little loot from Pergolettese's travels as they have only collected 9 points from 15 away games in the Serie C: Girone A. Pergolettese only have 2 wins to counter their 10 defeats and 3 draws. Pergolettese has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Pergolettese aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 352 league minutes without a goal. Bariti was the last player to find the net.

Pergolettese's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Trento Calcio 1921 that finished 0-0.

Prior to that match, the Pergolettese manager Mussa faced defeat when travelling to Lecco and losing 0-3.

Pergolettese are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is three wins, four draws and seven defeats. From a total of 14 matches.

A new game in only three days for Pergolettese, the Serie C: Girone A home match versus Giana Erminio. Busy days.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Pergolettese as they have only managed to score 12 times from 15 away games in the league. For Pergolettese, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net. Pergolettese has visited these top teams four times, and 3 of 4 has ended with 2 goals or more!
