The allure of the Ravegnana derby takes center stage once again, this time among the professionals. Tomorrow, Forlì and Ravenna will face each other after last season’s clash, when the Biancorossi’s victory at the Morgagni proved decisive for the championship. A precedent that adds extra motivation to a match already highly charged, both on and off the field.

The match will once again pit the two coaches, Marco Marchionni and Alessandro Miramari, against each other, with their head-to-head record perfectly balanced: one win apiece.

Ravenna heads into the derby with positive momentum, coming off convincing performances against Cittadella and Campobasso that showcased their play, intensity, and solidity—results that, in part, felt even tighter than the quality they produced on the pitch. On the other side, Forlì comes off a narrow defeat at the hands of one of the promotion favorites, Arezzo, in a match where they nonetheless proved capable of handling the step up to the new division. The Biancorossi squad, built in the image of their coach, is young and dynamic, and will also feature several former Giallorossi: Macrì, Manuzzi, Saporetti, Ercolani, and Pellizzari.

Excitement is high in the stands, with Ravenna fans ready to fill the away section at the Morgagni. Despite technical difficulties during ticket pre-sales, the enthusiasm has not waned, and the team can count on the support of a passionate following, as has consistently happened in recent seasons.

As for the Giallorossi squad, Luciani, still recovering from a glute injury, and Menegazzo remain sidelined, while there is good news from Ilari, who has returned to the group and is determined to regain top physical form.

Forlì – Ravenna FC will not be just a derby: it will be a match with strong symbolic value, evoking past emotions and opening a new chapter in the rivalry in Serie C.

Ravenna FC is ready to embrace its city. Tonight, Tuesday, August 19, at 8:45 PM in Piazza del Popolo, the official presentation of the first team for the 2025/26 Serie C season will take place.

It will be a moment of great connection with the Giallorossi fans, who will have the chance to meet the coaching staff and players up close, applaud the new faces, and support those who will continue wearing the Byzantine colors. The event will also be the perfect opportunity to let the team feel the city’s warmth ahead of the league opener and following their winning debut in the Coppa Italia.

During the evening, the new match kits—symbols of Ravenna’s identity and passion—will be unveiled for the first time, and fans will have the opportunity to subscribe to season tickets or purchase tickets for Saturday’s match against Campobasso.

An event that brings together sport and community, marking the start of a new journey in the professional ranks for everyone together.
