CALEPINA, Italy (Interstat) — Calepina will host Brusaporto on Sunday in a Serie D match, with both clubs looking to build on mixed starts to the season.

Brusaporto enters with two wins and one loss across all competitions. Its most recent result was a 1-0 home victory over Fiorenzuola. Before that, Brusaporto beat Tritium 2-1 at home. Its only defeat this season came in a 2-0 loss at Leon. The visitors have shown the ability to grind out narrow results and will seek another strong road performance. They have scored in each of their wins and will aim to keep that attacking rhythm.

Calepina has one win, one loss and one draw across all competitions. Its most recent match ended in a 3-1 loss at Piacenza. Before that, Calepina played Scanzorosciate to a 0-0 draw on the road. Calepina opened its season with a 5-1 home win over Palazzolo. The home side has produced a high-scoring result already but has also shown inconsistency. Calepina will want a more balanced performance at home.

Serie D competition often rewards teams that manage momentum, and both sides have had varying early-season returns. Calepina will rely on home advantage while Brusaporto aims to continue its recent positive result. The matchup pairs a Calepina side that has scored in bunches at times with a Brusaporto team that has conceded little in its wins. Both clubs will look to control midfield and limit chances in what could be a tight contest.

Calepina’s home setting may offer an edge, but Brusaporto’s record suggests it can compete away from home. The visitors have won two of their three matches across all competitions, while Calepina has one win from three. Calepina’s draw and loss have come in different styles, leaving room for improvement in consistency. Brusaporto’s loss to Leon was its only blemish, and a response has already followed with the win over Fiorenzuola. The early table implications are modest, but the match offers each club a chance to establish rhythm before the Serie D schedule deepens.

Calepina will need to be sharp defensively after conceding three times at Piacenza. Brusaporto will seek to build on a clean sheet against Fiorenzuola and maintain its scoring form from the Tritium win. The game could hinge on which side handles the early tempo and creates the better chances in the final third. A disciplined start could prove important for either team.

Interstat’s game simulator projects a final score of Calepina 1, Brusaporto 1. Interstat’s ELO system gives Calepina a 60.5 percent probability to win.
