Carpi form and stats

When playing at home in the Serie C: Girone B, Carpi have managed 6 wins, 8 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 17 games.

A strong away win for Carpi against Gubbio the last match, as A. Ghion, A. Ferretti (2) and Caio de Cenco were on target. In the match before that, Carpi hosted Virtus Verona and drew the game 2-2.

As mentioned above, Carpi "killed" Gubbio in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
