Renate desperately need points on Sunday, Jan 3 at 5:30 PM in the Serie C – Group A. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Renate come into this fixture out of form (0W 2L recently). Alcione, meanwhile, arrive drawing too many games (3D in last 5) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Head-to-head records offer little separation — Renate and Alcione have split their 5 meetings almost evenly (2W–1D–2W). Their last encounter ended in Renate won 1–3.

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