Modena form and stats

Modena's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed Modena collect 13 points from their 6 away matches in the Serie C: Girone B. 4 victories and 1 draw have created these points (and only 1 defeat). The fact that Modena have won four matches in a row should scare the hosts and makes this contest more interesting.

Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. Modena goalkeeper Riccardo Gagno is eager to challenge this, with his 244 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.

Modena delivered a 4-4 draw playing at home against Piacenza in their previous match; a Coppa Italia Serie C game. Drawing 4-4 against Piacenza after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 3-1. Their manager A. Tesser needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result. A bonkers fixture with masses of goals last time out for Modena, as mentioned above. 8 goals in total, will this game be as much fun?

Prior to that match, a home win 2-0 against Carrarese in the Serie C: Girone B.

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

With an average of more than two away goals per league game away, Modena are regular goalscorers on their travels. Modena 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.
