Ascoli, Recent FormAn important point secured against Parma will have left Ascoli quite happy with their 1-1 draw. They came away from that fixture with 34% of the possession and clocked up 9 attempts on goal with 3 on target. By comparison, Parma managed 19 attempts on goal, with 5 on target.
When it comes to attacking power Fabrizio Castori will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 4 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 7 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. They have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home games.
They've had a poor run of form at Stadio Cino e Lillo Del Duca recently, losing 3 of their last 6 home games and managing only 1 win.
Bari, Recent FormBari will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 3-1 home win against Ternana. Their share of possession in that meeting was 47%, while racking up 16 shots along the way, 6 of which were on target. Ternana had 11 shots on goal with 1 on target.
It seems pretty certain that Pasquale Marino will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 6 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 5 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 away games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win. They've had an unusually high number of draws this season, with 11 draws in 20 league games.
With 2 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Bari, Giuseppe Sibilli will be looking to add more goals against Ascoli in this match.
