Ascoli showcases decidedly superior form and statistics in away matches. The visitors boast an impressive 50% away win rate and concede an average of just 0.38 goals, resulting in a 63% clean sheet rate. Furthermore, Ascoli maintains an advantage in possession (63% vs 45%) and demonstrates superior finishing efficiency with a better xG (1.43 vs 1.36). At home, Pianese holds a balanced record of 33% for wins, draws, and losses, hampered by a weak defense conceding an average of 1.33 goals per game. While recent form over the last five matches is comparable, Ascoli's significantly stronger defensive and offensive metrics give them the edge in this clash. Considering all statistics, a victory for the visitors is the most likely scenario, though Pianese's solid recent run (2 wins and 3 draws) suggests this could be a competitive encounter.
