Recanatese form and stats

With 2 Serie C: Girone B wins, 5 draws and 6 defeats from their home games, Recanatese are certainly not brimming with confidence.

Recanatese enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Lucchese's place. The match ended 3-1 with Senigaliesi and Carpani (2) scoring. Finally, a league victory after five fixtures without one.

The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 0-0 versus Imolese.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Recanatese here at Stadio Nicola Tubaldi in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (9 from 13 games). It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. 15 goals have been conceded.
