Sudtirol - Cesena
Sudtirol seek defensive stability against visiting Cesena
Sudtirol face a critical test of their resolve as they look to arrest a difficult run of form during this matchday 10 encounter at Stadio M. Druso on 31 October 2026. The hosts have struggled to find the back of the net recently, failing to score in their last two Serie B outings, including a 2-0 defeat against Calcio Padova. With Bjarki Steinn Bjarkason sidelined due to injury, the expected XI led by Alvin Okoro and Vasco Lopes will need to rediscover their attacking rhythm to break down a resilient Cesena side.
Cesena arrive in better spirits following a narrow 2-1 victory over Empoli, a result that provided a timely boost after their heavy loss to Modena. Their recent history against Sudtirol suggests a tight affair, with their last meeting in April 2026 ending in a 1-1 draw. Alessandro Siano is expected to start in goal for the visitors, anchoring a lineup tasked with navigating the challenge of an away fixture in this competitive league campaign.
