Team analysis: Catanzaro
The home side currently sit in 6th place with 48 points from 9 wins, 19 draws, and 5 losses. In their penultimate match, they drew (3-3) with Bari 1908 and followed this up with another draw (2-2) against Carrarese. Within their last 10 home games, Catanzaro has secured 17 points, showing resilience with 4 wins, 5 draws, and just 1 defeat. However, they have conceded goals in 7 of those matches, indicating some defensive frailty. Yet, their attack has been potent, scoring in 9 of those 10 encounters. Notably, they have conceded the first goal 16 times across 33 games but have only turned the match around on 2 occasions.
As they head into the 35th round of Serie B, Catanzaro will aim for a balanced performance in front of their supporters. Typically employing a 4-3-3 or a 4-2-3-1 formation, the coach focuses on offensive intensity and effective space utilisation in midfield. Their recent performances suggest they can create scoring opportunities but may leave gaps defensively. Especially at home, Catanzaro tends to increase the tempo from the off, looking to press their opponents and exploit wide play, which could be crucial in their quest for vital points as the season draws to a close.
Team analysis: Palermo
Currently positioned 7th, the visitors have claimed 45 points from 13 wins, 8 draws, and 12 losses. Following a defeat (2-1) against Bari 1908, they previously enjoyed a home victory over Sassuolo (5-3). On the road, Palermo’s last 10 matches yielded 9 points, including 2 wins, 3 draws, and 5 defeats. Their defence has struggled, conceding in 8 of the last 10 fixtures, though they have managed to score in all of those games. Remarkably, they have been unable to overturn a deficit in any of the 14 games where they’ve conceded first.
Palermo is one of the more competitive teams in the Italian second division, currently vying for playoff qualification. Their standard formation aligns with a 3-5-2 or a 4-2-3-1 setup, showcasing a desire to form a robust defensive structure while also looking for quick transitions and wide play during attacking phases. In recent outings, they have been tactically disciplined and effective in countering opponents’ strengths, indicating a more cautious approach away from home, with a reliance on exploiting adversaries’ mistakes to create scoring opportunities.
