Saluzzo form and stats

There's been little loot from Saluzzo's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 8 away games in the Serie D: Girone A. Saluzzo only have 1 win to counter their 4 defeats and 3 draws. Three has not been a lucky number for Saluzzo as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Sestri Levante match.

The attacking players of Saluzzo have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 216 minutes.

Home advantage was not enough for Saluzzo in their previous game, as they lost their Serie D: Girone A-match, hosting Arconatese, 0-1.

The schedule is very tough for Saluzzo now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Serie D: Girone A game at Folgore Caratese is waiting in only four days.

Saluzzo are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 8 away goals from 8 games (in the league). Saluzzo's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 12 goals from these trips.
