Cesena will be hoping to build on a 2-1 win over Entella when they welcome in-form Mantova on Sunday aftenroon. The Bianconeri edged Entella at the weekend, although their attacking numbers were far from convincing, managing only seven attempts and 0.47 xG. Cesena have nevertheless been solid defensively, keeping clean sheets in 67% of their recent home matches. Klinsmann and Piacentini remain sidelined.
Mantova arrive in excellent shape after back-to-back wins over Carrarese and Empoli, although they suffered a heavy 5-2 Coppa Italia defeat to Palermo after resting several regular starters. Their recent away record remains impressive, with six wins from their last nine road fixtures and 1.83 goals scored per game. Mensah, Radaelli and Vesentini are among those unavailable. However, Cesena have dominated this fixture historically, winning seven of the 10 previous H2H meetings.
Considering that eight of the last 10 H2H meetings produced at least three goals, we believe that there is big value in betting on Over 2.5 goals, alongside Both Teams to Score (50% H2H).
This Serie B match will be played on Sunday 6 September 2026 at 14:00.
