Palermo form and stats

Seven points from three Serie C: Girone C home games is a great start for Palermo, who are hoping to build on that form here at Stadio Renzo Barbera.

Palermo drew their last game, 0-0 away at Juve Stabia (placed 7th).

Ahead of that match, Palermo won a home game hosting Campobasso (3-1).

This is expected to be a close game, with Palermo perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Palermo as a small favourite), we find two games. Palermo has won zero of these, drawn one and lost one.

The Palermo fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 5 goals in 3 league matches. As for guarding their own goal, Palermo have only let in 1 goal at home.

Foggia had fun at their own home (Stadio Renzo Barbera) last time out, beating Messina 3-1. P. Martino, O. Merkaj and M. Rocca scored.

Preceding that game was the away victory against Fidelis Andria with the score of 3-0.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Foggia playing away and similar expectations, we found eleven relevant matches. Results were five Foggia wins, three draws and three defeats.

Foggia are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 4 away goals from 3 games (in the league). The Foggia defense is a tough nut to crack, having conceded less than half a goal per away game on average (1 goal in 3 games).
