Frosinone vs Mantova: match preview
Frosinone currently sit second in the table and find themselves in a very delicate situation heading into the final round. The side have collected 78 points after 37 matches. With only one game remaining, they hold a three-point advantage over third place and trail the leaders by just one point. As a result, they still have a chance to either win Serie B or lose second position altogether. Frosinone head into the fixture in strong form, unbeaten in 14 consecutive matches, and will be confident of at least protecting their current spot.
Mantova are lower in the standings but will also be highly motivated to claim victory. The team sit 10th in the table with 46 points after 37 rounds, level with two other clubs. That leaves them with a realistic opportunity of securing a top-eight finish and a playoff place in the battle for promotion to Serie A. To achieve that, Mantova must win this match and hope the other two teams slip up. Their recent form has been impressive, with four wins and one defeat in their last five matches.
