Pescara form and stats

Disaster struck Pescara last season as they could not defend their status as a Serie B team. With 20 defeats from 38 games, and only 7 wins, relegation could not be avoided. Pescara are hopeful of bouncing straight back up, but need to improve upon their home record from last season of W4 D5 L10.

This is expected to be a close game, with Pescara perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Pescara as a small favourite), we find 10 games. Pescara has won 2 of these, drawn 5 and lost 3.

With the first game of the season soon underway, it's time to look at the results from the Pescara friendly games in pre-season: Pescara played one friendly, won 0, drew 0 and lost 1. If you are really into statistics you might appreciate knowing that Pescara scored 0 goals and conceded 1 in these one game.

Avellino form and stats

Let's have a look at how Avellino performed last season in the Serie C: Girone C: They landed a 4th position in the league table after playing out 17 victories, 13 draws and 6 defeats. In total they scored 45 and conceded 26 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 8 - drew 5 and lost 5 with 17/12 goals scored/conceded.

Just as the home team, Avellino have been through a few friendly games in the intense training period that just finished. The results from these training matches are 0 Avellino wins, 1 draw and 0 losses.
