Mantova

- Mantova have conceded just five goals in their four home fixtures in Serie B 2026/2027.
- Francesco Modesto has done a brilliant job since taking over at Mantova on 16 December 2025 and this seems to be a very good football team, no matter how the formation can flip between a back three and a four-man shape.

Cremonese

- They have not won any of their four road games in the competition (D2, L2) and average just 0.75 goals per game away from home.
- Fabio Pecchia has had a good impact since taking over at the helm on 2 September 2026, but the Grigiorossi have won only one of their last five, drawn three and lost one.
Head-to-Head
Although Cremonese won the previous game 4-2 away from home, this derby has always been a close encounter and Tuesday's clash could be the same.
