Ancona form and stats

The story so far in the Serie C: Girone B for Ancona at their home stadium (Stadio del Conero) is 9 wins, 3 draws and 5 defeats.

A nice win for Ancona last time playing, versus Carrarese. That was also a home game and the match ended 2-0 with Rolfini (2) scoring for the victors.

A defeat was the result before that one, 0-2 away at Virtus Entella.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Ancona have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found five matches with the results: Won two, drawn one and lost two.

A decent goal production from Ancona in their home games so far, with 28 goals from 17 league matches. Ancona's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 23 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Carrarese form and stats

There's been little loot from Carrarese's travels as they have only collected 11 points from 17 away games in the Serie C: Girone B. Carrarese only have 1 win to counter their 8 defeats and 8 draws. Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in 13 away games in a row.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Carrarese, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-2 versus Ancona (placed 6th).

Preceding that match was the 1-1 draw at home vs Olbia.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Carrarese playing away and similar expectations, we found 16 relevant matches. Results were three Carrarese wins, five draws and eight defeats.

Goals are few and far between in Carrarese's away league games. Only 8 goals from 17 travels. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. In the opposite end, Carrarese have conceded 29 goals in their away games.
