Carrarese – Mantova

Mantova continued their climb up the Serie C table with a 2-1 away victory over Carrarese, moving to third place with 11 points from five games (three wins, two draws) and a comfortable +5 goal difference. The hosts, languishing at the bottom in 20th spot, could only muster a single point from their five matches, having failed to win any and scoring just two goals while conceding six. The win also gave Mantova the edge in their head‑to‑head this season, as they are the only side to have beaten Carrarese in their two encounters. Carrarese’s hopes of escaping the relegation zone remain slim after another defeat, leaving them five points adrift of safety.
