🗞️ Team News: Mantova

It seems likely that Virgiliani could go for a 4-2-3-1 formation featuring Marco Festa, Giacomo Fedel, Fabrizio Brignani, Stefano Cella, Cristiano Bani, Simone Trimboli, Salvatore Burrai, Davide Bragantini, Leonardo Mancuso, Antonio Fiori and Davis Mensah.

🗞️ Team News: Carrarese

In an otherwise healthy group of players, there’s just the lone fitness problem for the Carrarese manager Antonio Calabro to contend with. Stefano Mazzini (Shoulder injury) won’t be in action.

There’s a good chance that Gialloazzurri seem likely to elect for a 3-5-2 formation, choosing Nicola Ravaglia, Julián Illanes, Gabriele Guarino, A. Fontanarosa, Simone Zanon, Emanuele Zuelli, Nicolás Schiavi, Luigi Cherubini, Manuel Cicconi, Ernesto Torregrossa and Mattia Finotto.

💭 Prediction

We’ve got the feeling that Carrarese are likely to find the back of the net against this Mantova lineup, although that probably won’t quite prevent them from conceding a couple at the other end.

Our tip is for both teams to score in a 2-1 winning margin for Mantova by the conclusion of the game. Looking forward to this.
