Cosenza are making a bold bid to avoid automatic relegation to Serie C. They are up to 17th after four wins in a row and their final game sees them hosting 18th placed Juve Stabia. Cosenza looked dead and buried a few weeks ago but won four successive games to go into the play-out positions. That could still see them relegated but they are only two points from total safety. Their most recent game saw them win 5-1 at Empoli, who still have promotion hopes of their own, though not if they play like that. Cosenza had won their previous three games all by a 2-1 scoreline. . Home form has been good of late with only one defeat in their last five and three important wins. That is a big improvement as they have only won five at home all season. They have scored twice in four of their last five at home but conceded in each of their last nine. Only two home league clean sheets have been kept this season, none of them this year. 11 home league fixtures have seen both teams score with five of the last six having over 2.5 goals scored.

Juve Stabia are also in the need of points. They are now in the automatic relegation places and have to win this match to go into the play-out positions. Anything less will see them relegated to Serie C. They had earned five points from three games but have lost their last two. Only one of their last nine league games has been won. Away form is a major problem for Juve Stabia. They go into this game having no wins in their last ten away league fixtures. Just one point has been earned from the last seven on the road. That was at Frosinone and they should have done better, having led twice in that match. The last 16 away league games has seen them concede a goal. Cosenza are the side in form here and they can get a vital win
