Palermo vs Carrarese prediction, odds and how to watch

Calcio Padova produced a remarkable away victory at Palermo, with Dominic Vavassori scoring twice to overturn an early deficit and hand the home side a first defeat in five Serie B matches.

Antonio Prisco came off the bench and scored the only goal of the game in the 66th minute to give Benevento a 1-0 Serie B victory at Carrarese, who remain without a win in their last five Serie B matches.

Walid Cheddira gave Avellino the lead on the hour mark but Dennis Johnsen equalised within three minutes for Palermo, leaving the hosts to rue three big chances missed in a frustrating 1-1 draw.

Pietro Iemmello's 83rd-minute right-foot finish settled a tight Serie B contest at Catanzaro, giving the hosts a victory their pressure probably deserved. Carrarese arrived with a poor recent record and left with nothing.

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.

Calcio Padova host Carrarese on Sunday knowing a win keeps the pressure on. Carrarese arrive having won none of their last five in Serie B.

Palermo arrive at Empoli on Saturday full of confidence after four straight Serie B wins, but the hosts have quietly tightened up and will not roll over. This one matters.
