REF’s picks

Palermo sit top of Serie B with strong momentum and arrive as favourites at 2.20 to overcome Mantova. Their recent attacking output, highlighted by a 4-2 win at Empoli, gives them the edge over a Mantova side that has leaked goals recently.

1. 1Palermo's recent form shows four wins from five matches, establishing them at the summit of the table.
2. 2Mantova showed defensive frailties in conceding nine goals across their last five fixtures.
3. 3Mantova's strong home backing and 14 points from six games make them tough opponents who can test Palermo's backline.
