Match description

Carrarese holds a clear advantage across key metrics and I project a home win. At home they average 1.44 goals per game, have xG 1.53 and 4.44 shots on target per match; Cesena away register 0.94 goals, xG 1.28 and 3.44 shots on target, which gives the hosts roughly a 0.5-goal and 0.25-xG advantage. Defensively Carrarese concedes 0.94 goals at home versus Cesena’s 1.5 conceded away, they keep 50% clean sheets compared to the visitors’ 11% and boast a home goal difference of +9 while Cesena have -10 on the road. In the last 5 matches the hosts scored 8 goals (1.6 per game) with PPG 1.4, while Cesena scored 4 goals (0.8 per game) with PPG 1.0, confirming better form for the hosts. Considering higher finishing efficiency (10% vs 8% conversion), superior xG and defensive stability, but also Carrarese’s high share of home draws (39%), I assess the probabilities as 55% home win, 28% draw and 17% away win.
