Modena and Cesena meet so often they feel like familiar opponents, and their last six meetings have ended closely almost every time. Only the 2-2 last September, when each side scored two, stood out; the rest finished with a one-goal margin or no goals at all. This time Modena come in sitting 4th after collecting 13 points from 7 matches, while Cesena are 13th with 8 points, so the table situation is different from previous meetings. Modena won two home matches in the middle of last month, but lost both of their last two. The attack still produces, but the defense is starting to show clear gaps. Cesena, meanwhile, have drawn almost every one of their last five, losing only once, 0-2. Their defense isn't bad, but the attack isn't sharp enough to close out games on its own. If Modena score first from the kind of chance they often create early, Cesena will have to open up and trade blows, which suits the visitors better because their defense is stubborn and they wait to counter. The game should finish close, and there's a high chance Cesena take points home.
