Crotone presents decidedly better home form with 57% wins and an impressive +10 goal difference at their own stadium. The hosts average 1.36 goals per home match while conceding just 0.64, giving them a solid defensive advantage. Cavese has very poor results on the road—only 14% wins and a negative goal difference of -8, conceding an average of 1.43 goals per away match. Additionally, the visitors fail to score in 50% of their away games, which could be crucial given Crotone's strong defense (50% clean sheets). Both teams have identical form in the last 5 matches (1.6 PPG), but the home advantage and direct statistics favor the hosts. Crotone's higher average xG in home games (1.39 vs 1.19 xGA) confirms their offensive effectiveness on their own ground.
