Bisceglie form and stats

There's been little loot from Bisceglie's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 8 away games in the Serie C: Girone C. Bisceglie only have 2 wins to counter their 5 defeats and 1 draw. Bisceglie are desperate to end a eleven-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Avellino fixture. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Bisceglie have lost on their last two travels.

There were no winners in Bisceglie's previous match, a Serie C: Girone C home game that ended 2-2 vs Paganese (placed 14th). A 1-2 defeat away at Monopoli before that.

Bisceglie are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 2 wins, 2 draws and 8 defeats. From a total of twelve matches.

The visitors have scored 5 goals from 8 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. As opposed to that, Bisceglie have seen the ball go into their own net 10 times on the road.
