Ascoli vs Crotone Prediction

Crotone has been the worst team in the league as far as away record is concerned. Crotone has secured the least points from away games and scored the least number of goals in matches on the road. They have lost 19 of their last 24 games away from home and is currently on a streak on seven losing away ties.

Crotone failed to score in five of their last six away matches. They have a total of just six goals in their last 12 away ties. It goes without saying that Crotone will lose this match, and fail to score as well.

The claim gets further credence when it is known that Ascoli stood unbeaten in eight of their last nine home-ties, and have conceded only six goals in their last eight attempts at home.
