Preview: Altamura Hosts Audace Cerignola in Serie C Clash

ALTAMURA, Italy (Interstat) — A mid-table Serie C matchup sees Team Altamura host Audace Cerignola on Sunday, with both sides looking to build on positive recent results.

The game at Stadio Antonio D’Angelo is scheduled for a 2:45 p.m. local (1345 GMT) kickoff.

Altamura (4-4-5) enters off a narrow 1-0 road victory at Giugliano on Dec. 6, a result that snapped a two-game winless streak. Their home form has been inconsistent, with just one win in their last five matches in front of their own supporters. They have shown resilience, however, earning draws against higher-placed sides like Cosenza and Siracusa earlier in the campaign.

Visiting Audace Cerignola (6-5-2) sits higher in the Group C table and brings a six-match unbeaten run (4-2-0) into the contest. That streak was extended last Sunday with a 1-1 home draw against Casertana. Prior to that, Cerignola had won four straight, including convincing 2-0 victories over Latina and Crotone. Their attacking form on the road has been potent during this stretch, scoring multiple goals in three of their last four away fixtures.

This contest pits Altamura’s sporadic home strength against Cerignola’s strong recent form. A key battle will be in midfield, where Altamura will aim to disrupt the rhythm that has fueled Cerignola’s climb.

According to the Interstat game simulator, the most likely outcome is a 1-1 draw.

Following this match, Altamura travels to face Casarano on Dec. 21. Cerignola’s next fixture is a Dec. 19 home match against Benevento.
