Arezzo form and stats

Arezzo's struggle is real here at Stadio Città di Arezzo with only 3 points collected from 10 Serie C: Girone B games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 0-3-7. With eleven home Serie C: Girone B games in a row without a win, the Arezzo fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Pergolettese game long ago, can be stopped today.

Arezzo's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-2 versus Cesena (placed 5th). Before that, Arezzo played out a draw 1-1 when visiting Ravenna.

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

Arezzo have scored 6 league goals here from 10 matches, not a lot. Arezzo are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (23 from 10 played).

FeralpiSalò form and stats

FeralpiSalò have only collected 7 points from their away games in the Serie C: Girone B, after 1-4-3 (8 played).

It might be tough going out on the road again for FeralpiSalò, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 2-3 versus Perugia (placed 4th). A 1-2 loss hosting Sambenedettese before that.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found eleven similar matches played by FeralpiSalò in our archives, and the results are: six wins for FeralpiSalò, one draw and four defeats.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the FeralpiSalò manager M. Pavanel as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Carpi.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far FeralpiSalò have scored 10 goals in 8 league games away. FeralpiSalò struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 14 goals conceded from these games.

Head 2 Head

The most recent history between these sides is the FeralpiSalò - Arezzo 2-1 played earlier this season. Head-2-head stats last three meetings: zero - two - one (Arezzo wins - draws - FeralpiSalò wins). As for goals, one match ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), two had two or less.
