Happy days for Rimini in their previous game, a fixture away at Alessandria (placed 17th) that ended with a 1-0 victory. Sweet to taste a league victory after five fixtures without.

In the match before that, Rimini hosted Lucchese and drew the game 1-1.

Gubbio form and stats

As the visiting team in Serie C: Girone B matches, Gubbio have produced an overall stat of 6-3-3 so far.
