The most frequent halftime score in their home matches has been 0-0 (6 out of 17 games). While the defence has shown weaknesses, conceding goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, the attack has been more reliable, scoring in 9 of the last 10 games in the championship. There is a tendency for low-scoring matches at home, with 11 of their last 17 competitions ending with fewer than 2.5 goals. Of 33 games in this league, they conceded the first goal 17 times and managed to come back only twice. One notable trend in their last 17 home matches is the concession of 7 out of their total of 18 goals during the 46th to 60th minutes.

Heading into the 35th round of Italian Serie B, Cesena aims to break a winless streak and solidify their position in the top half of the table. Currently in 9th place with 44 points, the team has struggled in the final third, featuring a sequence of draws and one defeat in their last five games. This indicates issues with offensive creativity and transitional play. Coach’s tactical approach focuses on defensive solidity, but the lack of effectiveness in attack limits their ability to dominate matches. The recent draw against Frosinone highlighted these issues as they failed to create clear scoring chances, putting pressure on them to secure a positive result to stay within reach of playoff positions and maintain hope for progression in the competition.
