Competition: Italy Serie C: Girone C

Match begins: 14:00 (UTC)
Venue: Stadio Angelo Massimino (23420 seats)

This could be an interesting match as Catania have their presumed home advantage while Ternana are ahead 11 points in the Serie C: Girone C table.

Catania and Ternana should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

These teams have little in common geographically as Ternana have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Nothing to worry about in defence for Catania, as their goalkeeper Jacopo Furlan has completely shut out the opponents for 204 minutes in the Serie C: Girone C.
