Cosenza, Recent FormThe Cosenza squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 2-0 away defeat against Cagliari, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. In that game they had 45% possession and managed 14 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Cagliari who had 25 attempts and 7 on target.
Having scored just 3 goals in their last 6 games, it will be glaringly obvious to their manager William Viali where he needs to focus his attentions if they are going to get more points on the table, although he will still have one eye on his defence which have shipped 9 in the same period. They have recently found some good scoring form at home, hitting the net in 5 of their last 6 matches at Stadio San Vito-Gigi Marulla. Having shipped at least a single goal in 17 of their 19 league matches this season, they don't have an enviable defensive record this campaign.
Results wise, their recent poor run of form has left them without a win in 6 games.
Benevento, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 2-0 home defeat by Perugia will have left the Benevento squad feeling a little deflated. They came away from that fixture with a 61% share of the possession and clocked up 19 attempts on goal with 3 on target, in comparison to Perugia, who managed 21 attempts on goal, 6 of which were on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 5 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 6 and seen valuable points lost. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
Benevento will take some comfort from being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 away games, but with only 2 wins there is some room for improvement.
Gennaro Acampora has scored 2 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Cosenza.
The last league encounter between these two sides concluded with a 0-1 win for Cosenza.
During the last 2 times these two teams have met in the league, Gli Stregoni have been unable to break through Cosenza's defence and find the back of the net. In their past 5 meetings, Benevento's defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 2 goals, so Bruzi will have to take their chances when they come.
Cosenza has won the last 2 games they've played against Benevento in the league.
With no real injury worries, Cosenza manager William Viali will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Benevento manager Fabio Cannavaro has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
