Competition: Italy Serie D: Girone I
Competition: Sun 09.February
Match begins: 13:30 (UTC)
Venue: Stadio Comunale Castrovillari Mimmo Rende (4000 seats)

This could be an interesting match as Castrovillari have their presumed home advantage while Troina are ahead 12 points in the Serie D: Girone I table.

Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Troina have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 11-8-9 (win-draw-loss) from 28 matches.

Castrovillari form and stats

4 victories, 4 draws and 2 defeats. That’s what Castrovillari have to build on here at Stadio Comunale Castrovillari Mimmo Rende in the Serie D: Girone I. Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.

An away draw last time out for Castrovillari, facing Palmese in a game that ended 4-4. In the match before that, Castrovillari hosted Messina and drew the game 1-1.

A disappointing finish for Castrovillari in their match versus Palmese as their 2-0 lead was destroyed and replaced with a 4-4 full time score. A goal frenzy last time out for Castrovillari, with a total of 8 goals in the match against Palmese. Fun stuff to watch!

Troina failed to get anything from their last game, a Serie D: Girone I home match vs San Tommaso (placed 17th) that ended with defeat 0-1. Prior to that match, a home win 2-1 against Acireale.

Late heartbreak for Troina in the San Tommaso match, as the deciding 0-1 goal came deep into overtime.
