Ancona form and stats

The Serie C: Girone B stats at home this season for Ancona are 5-0-3 (wins-draws-losses). Game days at Stadio del Conero have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Ancona as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.

Ancona drew their last game, 1-1 away at Gubbio (placed 10th).

Before that game, the home loss against Modena with the scoreline 0-1.

This is expected to be a close game, with Ancona perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Ancona as a small favourite), we find three games. Ancona has won two of these, drawn zero and lost one.

A decent goal production from Ancona in their home games so far, with 14 goals from 8 league matches. On the other hand, Ancona have conceded 10 goals. It's worth mentioning that 6 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.

Siena form and stats

The visitors are W2-D3-L2 on the road this term. That's in the Serie C: Girone B.

Home advantage was not enough for Siena in their previous game, as they lost their Serie C: Girone B-match, hosting Grosseto, 1-3.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Lucchese wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Siena playing away and similar expectations, we found ten relevant matches. Results were four Siena wins, two draws and four defeats.

The attacking power of Siena when travelling is not overwhelming with 6 goals scored from 7 league matches away. Siena are defending well in their away games, having conceded only 5 times in 7 matches. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above. It's worth mentioning that 4 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
