Mantova vs Hellas Verona prediction, odds and how to watch

Mantova looked set to hold on for all three points before Vanja Vlahović equalised deep into stoppage time to earn Pisa a 2-2 draw in a bad-tempered, open Serie B encounter.

Daniel Mosquera came off the bench to score twice in two minutes and hand Hellas Verona a 2-1 Serie B victory over Vicenza, overturning a deficit with a ruthless late spell that settled a fractious, card-filled contest.

Mantova made it count when it mattered, finishing the sharper of two evenly matched sides to claim a 2-0 Serie B win over Sampdoria, whose profligacy in front of goal proved fatal.

Calcio Padova dominated large portions of this Serie B clash but could not convert their superiority into victory, as Hellas Verona equalised through Amin Sarr's penalty to earn a 1-1 draw at the Euganeo.

Two of Serie B's form sides collide on Saturday as Mantova host Palermo, with both teams carrying serious momentum into a fixture that could have real implications at the top of the division.

Hellas Verona host Catanzaro on Friday night with both sides carrying inconsistent form and questions that need answering. This is a fixture neither team can afford to treat lightly.

Modena have managed just one clean sheet in their last ten Serie B matches, and Hellas Verona are coming to town having scored eight goals in four away outings. This has the makings of a scrap, and somebody's defensive frailties are about to be brutally exposed.

Catanzaro arrive at this Serie B fixture having lost four of their last five matches, while Mantova roll into town with three wins from their last five. Something has to give.
