It's a brand new Serie C Play-offs campaign and Avellino are itching to get competitive here at Stadio Partenio-Adriano Lombardi. Foggia are coming to town and this looks to be a compelling season premiere.

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Serie C Play-offs game only three days ago.

Avellino form and stats

It's the first season at a new level for Avellino as they were promoted from Serie C: Girone C last season. Happy days that were secured through 17 wins, 13 draws and 6 losses from 36 games. The team scored 28 goals at home last season and conceded 14. It will be interesting to see how they perform at this level.

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 Avellino have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found nine games) they have won six times, drawn two and lost one.
