Avellino's previous game was also played at home, ending 3-2 versus Foggia (placed 4th). The home side are looking to build on that result. Sweet to taste a league victory after four games without one. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of Rastelli when Gaudio scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 76th minute.

Heartbreak before that as Avellino lost 1-4 at Catanzaro's place.
