An important duel in the bottom section of the league table, with both teams experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic “six-pointer” with the home team placed 20th and the visitors in 18th place.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
Rende form and stats
With 2 Serie C: Girone C wins, 1 draw and 6 defeats from their home games, Rende are certainly not brimming with confidence. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Rende to get some points in this home game.
Stress levels are on the rise for Rende's attacking players as they have now played 196 minutes without scoring in a league game. D. Nossa was their last goal scorer.
The fans are hoping that Rende will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the Serie C: Girone C game against Catania (placed 6th). Ahead of that match, Rende lost 0-3 at home to Bari 1908.
This is expected to be a close game, with Rende perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Rende as a small favourite), we find six games. Rende has won 1 of these, drawn 1 and lost 4.
The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Rende here at Stadio Comunale Marco Lorenzon in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (6 from 9 games). On the other hand, Rende have conceded 11 goals.
FC Rieti form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for FC Rieti, who have the most conceded goals (41) in Serie C: Girone C, so far with only 7 points returning home. The records show 2-1-5 (win-draw-lose). The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as FC Rieti have lost on their last two travels.
FC Rieti delivered a 2-2 draw playing at home against Bisceglie (placed 17th) in their previous match; a Serie C: Girone C game. The game before that, was lost at home, a 1-4 defeat against Catania.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with FC Rieti playing away and similar expectations, we found two relevant matches. Results were 0 FC Rieti wins, 0 draws and 2 defeats.
FC Rieti have scored 9 goals on their travels this season, from 8 away games in the league. People interested in "over 2,5 goals" betting will like to know that FC Rieti concede an average of more than 2,5 goals per away match all on their own.
