Match Analysis

Reason For Crotone vs Benevento Betting Tips

• Seven of Crotone’s last eight matches have seen over 2.5 goals scored.
• The hosts have the worst defensive record in Serie A, keeping just two clean sheets all season.
• Benevento have lost just one of their last five away games, winning three of those fixtures.

Crotone’s trouble to continue

Bottom of the table Crotone have only won two of their 17 matches since earning promotion back to Serie A, but they usually provide plenty of entertainment, as seven of their last eight games have seen over 2.5 goals scored.

Indeed, Giovanni Stroppa’s side have only kept two clean sheets all season and they both came away from home, so it is no surprise that they have the worst defensive record in Serie A.

The Calabrians have at least scored in each of their last five games and that record looks set to continue on Sunday given 10th-placed Benevento have conceded more goals than any other side in the top-12 of Serie A.

While Filippo Inzaghi’s side may struggle defensively, they more than make up for that with an impressive away record that has seen them lose just one of their last five on the road.

We are predicting that record to continue on Sunday, as we see Benevento winning 2-1, and if that result comes in then our prediction of over 2.5 goals in the match will also bear fruit.
