The manager Banchini will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Reggiana in only three days.

Grosseto form and stats

Grosseto have only collected 10 points from their away games in the Serie C: Girone B, after 2-4-9 (15 played). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Grosseto's last three away games as they have all been lost.

Grosseto won their last game, 2-0 versus Imolese played at home.

Preceding that game, the 1-2 loss visiting Teramo's place.

Grosseto are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is three wins, two draws and seven defeats. From a total of twelve matches.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Pontedera in just three days.

The visitors have scored 12 goals from 15 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Grosseto's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 26 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

The most recent past meeting between these participants is the Grosseto - Pesaro 1-1 played earlier this season.
