Fermana form and stats

2-3-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Serie C: Girone B numbers at home for Fermana so far this season.

No payout for Fermana in their previous match, an away game at Teramo that ended in defeat 2-3.

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Pontedera in a game that was won 1-0.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.

Pistoiese form and stats

There's been little loot from Pistoiese's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 7 away games in the Serie C: Girone B. Pistoiese only have 1 win to counter their 3 defeats and 3 draws. Visiting Pistoiese has seen their last two away games both end with a tied score and one point each.

Pistoiese are travelling after their nice 2-1 home win in the Serie C: Girone B against Viterbese Castrense (placed 20th). Late drama in the previous game, when M. Gennari scored the winning goal three minutes into stoppage time to defeat Viterbese Castrense.

Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Cesena that ended 0-0.

We have checked recent matches where Pistoiese have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 17 games were five victories, two draws and ten defeats.

The attacking power of Pistoiese when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 7 league matches away. 7 goals have been conceded by Pistoiese in these games.
