Cesena host Empoli in a Serie B clash where home advantage could prove decisive, with 2-1 our predicted outcome. The Bianconeri have been strong at home, winning 80% of their matches at Stadio Dino Manuzzi and averaging 2 goals per home game. Their defense has also been resilient, conceding just 0.8 goals per home match, though they suffered a 2-0 loss to Catanzaro last time out. Overall, Cesena average 1.2 goals scored and 0.9 conceded per game, highlighting a well-balanced approach at home.
Empoli, on the other hand, travel to Liguria with key midfielder Gerard Yepes suspended and are inconsistent on the road, averaging 1.2 points per away match with 1 goal scored and 1 conceded. Both teams’ recent head-to-head history shows Empoli dominance with 7 wins in 11 matches, but encounters often produce goals, with 55% of previous clashes seeing both teams score and 6 of 11 games going over 2.5 goals.
Taking everything into account, we predict an open game with Cesena’s strong home form could be the deciding factor. Therefore, Home Win is our main betting pick, with additional value on Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals.
This Serie B match will be played on Saturday 10 January 2026 at 18:30.
