Modena vs Mantova prediction, odds and how to watch

Modena came from behind to beat Empoli 2-1 in Serie B, with Andrea Belotti and Giuseppe Ambrosino scoring after the break to overturn Gerard Yepes's early opener for the visitors. Empoli dominated the ball and created chance after chance but paid the price for poor finishing.

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.

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.

Südtirol led through Alvin Okoro's first-half goal but Giuseppe Ambrosino equalised two minutes from time to snatch a point for Modena in a match the visitors dominated on the numbers.

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.

Carrarese head into Saturday's Serie B fixture against Modena without a win in their last five completed matches. Modena are no world-beaters themselves, but they look a different animal to the side hosting them.

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.
