Fano form and stats

Fano's results here at Stadio Raffaele Mancini in the Serie C: Girone B have been very modest with 0 victories, 2 draws and 4 defeats. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a league-game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in twelve attempts.

Fano drew their last game, 0-0 away at Vis Pesaro (placed 16th). Preceding that match was the home game against Virtus Verona that was lost 1-2.

This is expected to be a close game, with Fano perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Fano as a small favourite), we find 16 games. Fano has won four of these, drawn three and lost nine.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Fano, as the Serie C: Girone B home game vs FeralpiSalo is only four days away.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Fano here at Stadio Raffaele Mancini in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (5 from 6 games). Fano have conceded 10 from these games.

Legnago Salus form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Legnago Salus so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 0-6-0 (win-draw-lose). It's been quite a sequence of draws for Legnago Salus when traveling as their last six away games have all ended all square. Not since the Cjarlins Muzane match has the points been distributed unevenly.

Legnago Salus might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Cesena proved too strong as Legnago slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Stadio Mario Sandrini. Before that, Legnago travelled to Sambenedettese and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.

Late heartbreak for Legnago in the Cesena match, as the deciding 0-1 goal came deep into overtime.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found two similar matches played by Legnago in our archives, and the results are: zero wins for Legnago Salus, one draw and one defeat.

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

The visitors have scored 4 goals from 6 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Legnago Salus are defending well in their away games, having conceded only 4 times in 6 matches. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
