Prediction published on Oct 21, 2026 7:09 PM by Dario in Italy - Serie C: Girone C | Modified on Oct 21, 2026 7:09 PM
Team Altamura host Potenza Calcio in Italy’s Serie C: Girone C on Friday, October 23, 2026. Kick-off is scheduled for 18:30 local time at the Stadio Comunale Tonino D’Angelo in Altamura. The visitors arrive top of the group after five consecutive wins, most recently beating Catania 2-1. Altamura, currently 16th, also come into the match with a victory behind them: a 3-1 result away to Cosenza. That win gives the hosts encouragement, but Potenza’s sustained form makes this a demanding test.
Team Altamura recorded two wins, one draw and two defeats across their last five matches. Their 3-1 success at Cosenza on October 18 was a welcome result for a side seeking to improve its position in Girone C. Over those five games, Altamura averaged 1.0 goal scored and 1.4 conceded per match, so the Cosenza result stands out as a stronger attacking performance than their recent average.
Across their league campaign, the hosts have three wins, two draws and five losses. They have averaged 0.7 goals scored and 1.4 conceded per game. Finding the net against the group leaders would therefore be an important step, particularly if they are to build on their latest victory. Altamura have lost at half-time in six of their last ten home matches, another trend they will want to change against visitors who have started recent league games strongly.
Many of Altamura’s matches have stayed below four total goals. There have been under 3.5 goals in 36 of their last 38 Girone C fixtures, as well as 37 of their last 40 matches across the wider sample supplied. At least one team has failed to score before half-time in 28 of Altamura’s last 30 league games. Those figures suggest that, despite the three goals scored at Cosenza, a prolific contest has not been the usual pattern in the hosts’ matches.
Potenza Calcio enter this fixture in first place in Girone C and with five wins from their last five matches. Their latest result was a 2-1 home win over Catania on October 17. The visitors have averaged 3.4 goals scored per game during that five-match winning run, although they have also conceded an average of 1.4. They travel to Altamura with a clear attacking record to set against the hosts’ tendency to play in lower-scoring matches.
Potenza’s broader league numbers underline why they lead the group: eight wins, one draw and one defeat, with averages of 2.6 goals scored and 1.3 conceded per match. Their recent first-half performances are also notable. Potenza have been ahead at half-time in each of their last three Girone C matches, while at least one second-half goal has been scored in 22 of their last 24 league fixtures. Altamura’s half-time home record makes the opening period an especially relevant part of this matchup.
The visitors cannot assume that their scoring form will make the trip straightforward. Altamura arrive after winning away at Cosenza, while Potenza have conceded at a similar rate across their last five matches to the hosts. Still, Potenza have turned their attacking output into five successive victories, giving them a stronger recent set of results going into Friday’s meeting.
This Girone C preview brings together two contrasting statistical trends. Altamura’s games have frequently finished under 3.5 total goals, but Potenza have averaged 3.4 goals scored across their five straight wins. Whether the hosts can keep the visitors closer to their usual match pattern could shape the contest. Their victory at Cosenza shows they can arrive with confidence of their own, even if their season-long scoring average remains modest.
The supplied head-to-head record also favors Potenza: from Altamura’s perspective, the five meetings comprise no wins, three draws and two defeats. That record does not rule out a competitive match, with draws accounting for three of those results, but it adds to the case for Potenza as the stronger side on current evidence. The supplied match-win probabilities put Potenza at 47%, compared with 26% for Altamura and 27% for the draw.
Altamura’s immediate aim will be to follow up their Cosenza win against the league leaders. Potenza, meanwhile, have the opportunity to extend a five-match winning sequence and reinforce their position at the top of Girone C. The hosts’ low-scoring match history offers a counterpoint to the visitors’ attacking form, but Potenza’s results, league record and head-to-head advantage give them the clearer case heading into kick-off.
Team Altamura vs Potenza Calcio prediction from BetMines: Potenza Calcio win (2) with 47% probability.
