Frosinone host Venezia in the third round of the 2026/27 Serie A season on Sunday, September 6, with kick-off scheduled for 13:00 local time at the Stadio Benito Stirpe. This will be the clubs' first meeting in Serie A, although they faced each other in Serie B last season. Both teams enter the fixture after midweek Coppa Italia eliminations, but their league starts have been very different. Frosinone responded to an opening defeat against Juventus by recording an impressive 3-0 victory away to Fiorentina, while Venezia have lost their first two league matches by identical 2-0 scorelines. The hosts begin the weekend in ninth place, whereas the visitors are 19th and still searching for their first Serie A points and goals of the campaign.

Frosinone's Recent Form and Key Statistics

Frosinone have collected one win and one defeat from their opening two Serie A fixtures, averaging 1.5 goals scored and 0.5 conceded per game. After being narrowly beaten by Juventus, they produced a convincing response against Fiorentina. Antonio Raimondo scored twice in the 3-0 away victory, a result that provided a significant boost ahead of this first home league match against Venezia.

Their most recent outing ended 1-1 against Sassuolo on September 2 before Frosinone were eliminated from the Coppa Italia on penalties. Across their last five matches, the Canarini have registered two wins, one draw and two defeats, scoring an average of 1.8 goals and conceding 1.0 per game. Their longer-term numbers are particularly notable: Frosinone have scored at least once in 33 of their last 34 matches and avoided defeat in 32 of those 34 fixtures.

Home results were important during Frosinone's previous Serie A campaign, when they collected 25 of their 35 points at the Stadio Benito Stirpe. They now have the opportunity to win two of their opening three matches in a Serie A season for the first time in the club's history.

Romano Schmid is expected to return after missing the cup match with a minor injury. Raimondo and Giorgi Kvernadze are also expected to come back into the starting side, while Seydou Fini could join them in the attacking unit. Fares Ghedjemis, however, remains doubtful. Raimondo will command particular attention after his two goals against Fiorentina and his previous goal against Venezia in February.

Venezia's Recent Form and Key Statistics

Venezia have endured a difficult return to Serie A, losing both league matches without scoring. They began with a 2-0 home defeat against Lecce before suffering another 2-0 loss away to Milan. Venezia kept that second match level for almost 70 minutes, but they were unable to maintain their resistance during the closing stages.

The Lagunari had opened the season positively by beating Modena in the Coppa Italia, but their results have since declined. A 2-1 defeat against Udinese on September 2 extended their sequence to three consecutive competitive losses, with exactly two goals conceded in each game. Their last five matches have produced one victory, one draw and three defeats, alongside averages of 1.2 goals scored and 2.0 conceded.

Venezia's early Serie A figures stand at no wins, no draws and two defeats, with an average of 0.0 goals scored and 2.0 conceded. Their matches have nevertheless consistently cleared the lowest goals line, as over 1.5 total goals has occurred in each of their last 12 games. At least one second-half goal has also been recorded in all 12 of those fixtures. Another unusual statistic is that Venezia have led at half-time in eight of their last 13 away matches.

The visitors' Serie A away record presents their most substantial challenge. Venezia have gone 27 away league matches without a victory, a run dating back to February 2022. They have also failed to win any of their last seven Serie A encounters with promoted teams since September 2021, recording four draws and three defeats.

Venezia will be without the injured Marin Sverko, Matias Moreno, Ivan Franjic and Andrea Adorante. Several regular starters were rested during the cup match, and captain Gianluca Busio is expected to return alongside Akor Adams and John Yeboah.

Frosinone vs Venezia Match Analysis

The form data gives Frosinone several reasons for confidence. They have scored in almost every recent fixture, are coming off a three-goal league victory and face a Venezia side that has conceded twice in each of its last three competitive matches. The hosts also have the stronger opening Serie A record, while the model's win probabilities give Frosinone a 41% chance, compared with 26% for the draw and 33% for Venezia.

However, the head-to-head record is closely balanced. Across five meetings, Frosinone have two wins, Venezia have two and one match has ended level. Frosinone average 1.4 goals in those games compared with Venezia's 1.2, while the latest encounter finished 2-1 to Venezia on February 7, 2026. The Lagunari defeated Frosinone twice during their successful Serie B campaign last season, so the visitors have recent evidence that they can compete effectively in this matchup despite their current away difficulties.

Goals remain a prominent theme in the available statistics. Each of the previous four meetings produced at least three total goals, Frosinone average 1.8 goals across their latest five games, and Venezia's last 12 matches have all contained more than 1.5 goals. The visitors are yet to score in Serie A this season, but they did find the net against Udinese in the cup. Meanwhile, the supplied probabilities rate both teams to score at 56% and over 2.5 goals at 52%.

Frosinone's reliable scoring run and Venezia's sequence of conceding two goals create the potential for an open contest. The away side's rested players may offer a different attacking threat from the one seen in midweek, but their long winless Serie A run on the road cannot be overlooked. With both clubs trying to respond to cup elimination, the home side's recent attacking performance and the high-scoring pattern of this fixture point towards another match containing several clear opportunities.
