Scrambling Viterbese cross their fingers to pull off a surprise win when they host high-flying Ancona in the next league match. It’s 20th vs 4th and the home crowd will have low confidence.
- Viterbese have the most matches under the total-line (8) in Serie C: Girone B
- Ancona have scored more than double the goals of Viterbese.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Viterbese form and stats
When playing at home in the Serie C: Girone B, Viterbese have managed 1 win, 1 draw and suffered 3 defeats from 5 games.

Ahead of that match, Viterbese won a home game hosting Siena (2-0).This is expected to be a close game, with Viterbese perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage.

A new game in only four days for Ancona, the Coppa Italia Serie C home match versus Viterbese. Busy days.
