Modena hold a distinct home advantage, boasting a 44% win rate at home and an impressive scoring efficiency of 1.44 goals per match while conceding just 0.81. The hosts also maintain clean sheets in 50% of their home games, showcasing defensive solidity. Mantova exhibit serious problems away from home, with only a 13% win rate, a 60% loss rate, and an alarming 53% of away matches without a goal scored. The difference in average xG (1.65 for Modena vs 1.37 for Mantova) and goal difference (+10 vs -10) further confirms the hosts' superiority. Despite Mantova's recent good form (1.6 PPG), their historical away struggles make a Modena victory the most likely scenario, although a draw cannot be ruled out due to the hosts' solid defense and the unpredictability of Serie B.
