The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Mestre are in the 8th position while the guesting Villafranca worry at 18th.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 900 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
Mestre form and stats
Mestre have played 12 Serie D: Girone C games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 5-2-5 (wins-draws-losses).
The home team returns to Stadio Francesco Baracca after being equal after 90 minutes with Legnago Salus (placed 2nd) on their last time out; the Serie D: Girone C game ended 0-0. Preceding that match was a defeat to Chions (1-2).
Mestre have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Stadio Francesco Baracca with 18 goals in 12 league matches. On the other hand, Mestre have conceded 15 goals.
Villafranca form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Villafranca so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 0-6-5 (win-draw-lose). Villafranca are desperate to end a 16-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Union Feltre fixture. Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in eleven away games in a row.
Villafranca have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 180 minutes ago. 215 minutes! That's how long the Villafranca goalkeeper and his defense have shut out their league opponents.
It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Chions (placed 13th) in their previous outing. The Serie D: Girone C match ended in a draw 0-0. A draw for Villafranca before that, at their own venue hosting Caldiero Terme (0-0).
Villafranca have scored 11 goals on their travels this season, from 11 away games in the league. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Villafranca have conceded 21 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
