Competition: Italy Serie C: Girone B
Competition: Thu 08.October
Match begins: 18:45 (UTC)
Venue: Stadio Renato Curi (28000 seats)

The Perugia manager M. Oddo attacks this game with the team placed 6th so far. In the visitors dressing room Cesena and their manager W. Viali are in 16th place before this match.

It's no vacation for neither Perugia nor Cesena as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Cesena have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 14-16-12 (win-draw-loss) from 42 matches.
