Cavese welcome Bari on Sunday, Jan 3 at 12:30 PM in a Serie C – Group C fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.

Cavese come into this fixture in mixed form (2W 1D 2L). Bari travel drawing too many games (3D in last 5), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.

Despite playing at home, Cavese face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Bari have won 3 of 5 encounters, with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in Cavese won 0–3. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.2 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Cavese a slight edge, but Bari are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
