Arezzo have been more up and down. They beat Empoli and Avellino away from home, but they were thumped 5-0 by Hellas Verona and also lost at home to Sudtirol and Palermo. Two wins from five isn't a disaster, but conceding 13 goals in five games points to problems at the back.

Arezzo have shown they can score on their travels, but they've also conceded heavily, so this one could open up at both ends.

Comparative Team Statistics: Carrarese vs Arezzo

History between these two

These sides have met nine times going back to 2016, almost all of it in Serie C rather than Serie B. Arezzo have the edge in the two most recent meetings, winning 3-1 at home in September 2023 and 3-2 away in January 2024.

That history is worth knowing, but it all came at a lower division, so it doesn't tell us much about how either side will play now in Serie B.

Where they stand

Arezzo sit 12th with six points from five games, having won two and lost three. Carrarese are down in 20th place with just a single point, a draw against Ascoli their only result that isn't a defeat.

It's still early days, only five matches in, so there's time for either side to turn things around before this fixture comes around.

Discipline notes

There isn't much team news to go on here, but a couple of disciplinary details stand out. Carrarese's G. Parlanti has picked up two yellow cards in five appearances, while Arezzo's J. Illanes has already been sent off once in four games.

Carrarese:

Penalty cards:

G. Parlanti x 2

Arezzo:

Penalty cards:

J. Illanes x 1

That's not enough to draw firm conclusions about suspensions for this fixture, but it's a sign both squads have had some ill discipline creeping in.

How this one could play out

Carrarese's problem has been scoring goals rather than a flood of chances against them. Arezzo, on the other hand, have shown they can find the net away from home but leak goals just as easily.

Put those two tendencies together and there's a reasonable chance of goals in this game, even if neither side is flying high in the table right now. A month is a long time before kickoff too, so form could shift again by then.
