The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Monopoli are in the 11th position while the guesting Paganese worry at 17th.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Serie C: Girone C. Thankfully the previous game, versus Palermo, was also a home game here at Stadio Vito Simone Veneziani. The away team is better rested.

Monopoli form and stats

Monopoli have played 15 Serie C: Girone C games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 5-5-5 (wins-draws-losses).

A nice win for Monopoli last time playing, versus Palermo. That was also a home game and the match ended 2-1 with O. Viteritti and A. De Paoli scoring for the victors. A 0-0 draw away before that, with Vibonese the opponent.

A late climax in the match against Palermo as the winning goal came three minutes into overtime; scored by O. Viteritti.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Monopoli have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found twelve games) they have won seven times, drawn one and lost four.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Serie C: Girone C game versus Casertana in only four days. This game is also played here at Stadio Vito Simone Veneziani.

Monopoli are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 19 goals in 15 games. Monopoli have conceded 18 in these home matches.
