Cittanovese form and stats

4 victories, 6 draws and 5 defeats. That’s what Cittanovese have to build on here at Stadio Comunale Cittanova in the Serie D: Girone I. It's trouble wherever Cittanovese are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways.

The Cittanovese crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-1 to Dattilo here at Stadio Comunale Cittanova in a Serie D: Girone I match.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Paternò (1-2).

Cittanovese are traveling soon after this match as the Serie D: Girone I match at Troina awaits in three days.

The Cittanovese fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 18 in 15 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Cittanovese have conceded 24 from these games.

San Luca form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for San Luca so far with only 15 points returning home. The records show 4-3-8 (win-draw-lose).

It might be tough going out on the road again for Luca, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 2-3 versus Biancavilla (placed 8th). Late heartbreak for Luca in the Biancavilla match, as the deciding 2-3 goal came deep into overtime.

Before that, Luca secured a home win against Marina di Ragusa with the score 2-1.

A new game in only three days for San Luca, the Serie D: Girone I home match versus Rotonda. Busy days.

San Luca are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 15 away goals from 15 games (in the league). As opposed to that, Luca have seen the ball go into their own net 21 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

The most recent history between these sides is the San Luca - Cittanovese 1-0 played earlier this season.
