Palermo VS Mantova

Fixtures, lineups and Stats

VS

Palermo vs Mantova is a Serie B matchup that leans toward Palermo, yet Mantova’s repeated draws made separation difficult before Palermo’s 5-2 Coppa Italia victory on 3 September 2026. Earlier meetings moved from 0-0 to 2-2, 1-1 and a narrow Palermo win. That blend gives the fixture a shifting character: Palermo can impose a margin, while Mantova remain capable of making the contest tight.

Stats for this game

Matchup Palermo VS Mantova

Palermo’s advantage takes shape

Palermo have set the stronger direction in this Serie B pairing, although the earlier scorelines often kept Mantova within reach. The meeting in Mantua on 30 October 2024 ended 0-0, and the return in Palermo on 16 February 2025 finished 2-2. Those results show how effectively Mantova could contain the contest before Palermo began turning pressure into clearer outcomes.

Draws give way to separation

Palermo won 2-1 at home on 4 March 2026, a narrow success that still left the balance contestable. Their next documented meeting, in the Coppa Italia on 3 September 2026, produced a 5-2 Palermo win in Palermo. The contrast matters: Mantova’s earlier ability to hold parity was followed by a scoreline that gave Palermo much greater room. It would be too simple to treat the cup margin as a permanent formula, but it confirms Palermo’s capacity to create decisive separation.

Mantova’s enduring task

Future meetings will test whether Mantova can recover the compactness seen in the draws, or whether Palermo can reproduce the control shown by their victories in Palermo. The matchup therefore carries both evidence of resistance and a clear Palermo response, making execution at each venue central to its identity.
