Serie B 2025-2026: Mantua-Monza, the probable formations

Mantova-Monza, kickoff at 3 p.m., is a match valid for the 37th day of the Serie B championship. The hosts are now safe and still harbor some hopes of getting back into the playoff zone, but they must win compulsorily in front of their fans. The Brianzoli are in full sprint for promotion to Serie A: Bianco’s team is second on 75 points tied with Frosinone, so the stakes are very high.

Mantova with Mancuso up front, and Marras and Ruocco on the trequartisti line. In midfield Trimboli along with Kouda, on the flanks act Maggioni and Benaissa.

Hosts with offensive tandem Petagna-Cutrone, and trequartista Hernani (or Colpani) behind them. In midfield Obiang is paired with Pessina, and on the flanks are Bakoune and Birindelli.

Mantova-Monza, the likely lineups
MANTOVA (3-4-2-1): Bardi; Dembélé, Cella, Castellini; Maggioni, Trimboli, Kouda, Benaïssa; Marras, Ruocco; Mancuso. All. Modesto.
MONZA (3-4-1-2): Thiam; Ravanelli, Delli Carri, Lucchesi; Bakoune, Obiang, Pessina, Birindelli; Hernani; Petagna, Cutrone. All. White.
