Avellino form and stats

Avellino have played 13 Serie C: Girone C games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-5-5 (wins-draws-losses). The home fans are hungry for more even though Avellino have been steadily collecting points here at Stadio Partenio-Adriano Lombardi through three straight draws.

Nothing to worry about in defence for Avellino, as their goalkeeper Andrea Dini has completely shut out the opponents for 229 minutes in the Serie C: Girone C.

Avellino enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Rende's place. The match ended 1-0 with V. Garofalo scoring. Before that, Avellino drew at home versus Cavese.

The victory against Rende came after V. Garofalo's winning goal. The Avellino manager E. Capuano was very happy afterwards with the decision to bring on that player in the 52nd minute.

There will be little rest for Avellino after this match as they are travelling to Bari 1908 for a Serie C: Girone C game in only four days.

The Avellino fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 16 in 13 matches. On the other hand, Avellino have conceded 18 goals.
