Montecchio Gallo vs Foligno Calcio - Serie D - Girone F

A fascinating Serie D - Girone F chapter awaits on September 27, 2026 when Montecchio Gallo take on Foligno Calcio at the home ground — two sides with plenty to play for and everything to prove. Manchester United drew 1-1 with Paris Saint-Germain in their fourth pre-season fixture of the summer on Saturday.

Both Montecchio Gallo and Foligno Calcio will be eager to build momentum when they meet in Serie D - Girone F. The hosts have been steady if unspectacular, DW in their last five reflecting a win rate of 50%. Foligno Calcio have made a habit of winning on the road, their WL run backing up a remarkable season win rate of 75%. Where Montecchio Gallo have built their campaign on solidity, Foligno Calcio have often chased flair, and that fundamental difference should make for compelling viewing. Despite his age, and recent injury record, Rodri remains the most complete central midfielder to have operated in the Premier League over the past five years.

The touchline duel between the two managers adds another layer of intrigue, with both likely to tweak their setups in search of a decisive edge. His passing display at the World Cup was yet more evidence of his suitability for City and the possession-heavy style Maresca favours.

Star players on both sides will be eager to make their mark, and the individual duels across the pitch could go a long way to deciding the outcome. The battle in midfield, where both sides look to control tempo, could prove the decisive arena. Hull's owner has said the deal to sign winger Leon Bailey from Aston Villa in a permanent transfer is close to being done, while they are also pursuing defender Nobel Mendy from Rayo Vallecano and midfielder Mert Komur from Augsburg.

The market has yet to form a strong view, and the contest looks genuinely difficult to call. Neither side holds a clear edge, and a 1-1 draw would be a fitting reflection of the balance between them. With positions in the Serie D - Girone F table to defend and momentum to chase, neither side can afford to leave anything in the tank. Premier League chief executive Richard Masters says a verdict on the alleged charges against Manchester City "has taken longer than expected".
