A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The Catania fans are optimistic that the difference between 6th and Potenza Calcio's 14th place in the table will show on the pitch.
- Potenza Calcio haven’t played a single 0-0 game away.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Catania form and stats
8 victories, 5 draws and 3 defeats. That’s what Catania have to build on here at Stadio Angelo Massimino in the Serie C: Girone C. Two home wins in a row for Catania bring valid hopes of a third.
Nothing to worry about in defence for Catania, as their goalkeeper Miguel Angel Martinez has completely shut out the opponents for 225 minutes in the Serie C: Girone C.
Catania's previous game was a Serie C: Girone C match also played at home, ending 1-0 versus Viterbese Castrense (placed 13th). The home side are looking to build on that result. In the game before, an away victory match versus Cavese with a 2-0 scoreline.
Catania are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 21 goals in 16 games. From these home matches, Catania have conceded only 13 goals.
Potenza Calcio form and stats
The visitors are W5-D2-L9 on the road this term. That's in the Serie C: Girone C.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Serie C: Girone C home defeat versus Juve Stabia with 0-2 on the scoreboard. Before that one, a nice away victory 2-0 at Cavese.
Looking at the earlier recent performances of Potenza when being an outsider away as they are today, we find four matches with the visitors losing four times, drawing zero and winning zero games.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Potenza as they have only managed to score 15 times from 16 away games in the league. 20 goals have been conceded by Potenza in these games.
