Sanremo has recorded two wins in a row here at Stadio Comunale Luigi Cichero, increasing their hopes of victory in this match.

Sanremo are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 2-4 away versus Citta di Varese. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a Coppa Italia Serie D home game that ended 2-2 versus Prato (after extra-time, 3-4 on penalties).

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Sanremo's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played two games, won one match, drawn zero and lost one.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Sanremo as they are travelling to their away game against Bra in the Serie D: Girone A. That match is three days after this one.
