Ascoli, Recent FormIt was just a point apiece for Ascoli and SPAL in their last match, which ended in a 1-1 draw. In that game they had 36% possession and managed 10 attempts on goal, with 2 on target, compared to SPAL who had 15 attempts and 7 on target.
It seems pretty certain that Cristian Bucchi will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 4 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 6 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. There are concerning signs for them, having failed to score in 4 of their last 6 league games. Bucchi will have some concerns about his team's back line after only making 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home matches.
With 3 defeats and just 1 win from their last 6 home league games at Stadio Cino e Lillo Del Duca, it's clear they are not having a good run of home form at the moment.
Palermo, Recent FormPalermo will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 1-0 win in their home outing against Bari. They achieved 53% possession in that match and had 10 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Bari's tally of 14 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 8 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 6, and leading to valuable points being dropped. With goals notched up in 5 of their past 6 matches, they are certainly showing some goal-scoring consistency of late.
There will be mixed feelings from I Rosanero, having been undefeated in their last 4 away league games, but drawn the last 3 of these games.
On an individual basis, Matteo Brunori will be looking to cause Ascoli some problems having scored 6 goals in Palermo's last 6 away games in the league.
In the previous league meeting between these two sides, it was Ascoli that came out on top with a 2-3 win.
Ascoli have conceded at least one goal in each of their last 4 league meetings with I Rosanero.
With no real injury worries, Ascoli manager Cristian Bucchi will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Palermo manager Eugenio Corini has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
