Cesena FC returns to the spotlight at home as it prepares to take the field against US Avellino in a match for Matchday 7 of the 2026/27 Serie BKT season, scheduled for Sunday, October 18, at 5:15 p.m. at the Orogel Stadium-Dino Manuzzi.
PAST ENCOUNTERS
There have been twenty total matches between the two teams in Serie BKT, with the Cavalluccio holding the upper hand, having secured 11 wins, along with 4 draws and 5 wins for the team from Campania.
However, when considering only the matches played in Cesena, the head-to-head record is even more lopsided, with just one away win and a full 8 victories for the Cavalluccio, including their most recent encounter, played on November 9 and ending with a 3-0 result.
STATISTICS AND INTERESTING FACTS
Both teams have stood out so far for creating a significant number of clear scoring chances (13 vs. 15) and also for having two of the best conversion rates: 46% for Cesena FC and 47% for US Avellino, which rank as the fifth and fourth best in the league, respectively.
Despite having fewer total shots than the Cavalluccio (71 vs. 63), the Campania-based team stands out, however, for having the third-best percentage of shots on target (53%) and, above all, the highest conversion rate in Serie BKT (17%).
Another statistic shared by the two teams is the number of goals scored in the first half: the Bianconeri and the Biancoverdi are, in fact, the two teams that have scored the most goals in the first half, with 5 and 9, respectively.
Furthermore, US Avellino is also the team that has scored the most goals in the first quarter-hour (4 goals), although Cesena FC is among the group of teams that remain undefeated during that same period of play.
Finally, a special mention goes to Cristian Shpendi: considering the last three seasons (since 2024/25) across Europe’s top five leagues and their respective second divisions, no player born in 2003 or later has scored more in home matches than the current Serie BKT leading scorer. The Bianconeri’s number nine has scored a total of 20 goals, tying him with Junior Kroupi (born in 2006, Bournemouth) and Chupe (born in 2004, Málaga).
