The game, of course. Catanzaro is not a team that can think of winning without playing as they know how, that is, keeping possession and trying to pierce the opponent’s defense with their phrasing: it has been like this for four championships and this is also one of the reasons why the Giallorossi are still looking for their first success of the season. They haven’t reached the balance to make everything fit. If they manage to beat Padova tomorrow (kick-off at 7.30pm) by taking advantage of a placed move, that will be fine too: it’s true that for the Giallorossi, form is substance, but in this case substance perhaps counts a little more, also to shore up a bench that isn’t very solid. Speaking of the bench, Aquilani will be in the stands because he was disqualified after the expulsion he received in Monza, before the break: in his place will be deputy Agnelli.
There are many questions about Catanzaro who returns to the field after two weeks and the first defeat in the championship which ended a string of six draws.

He may not have fully convinced, but there are worse figures than those of the Giallorossi, who are third for the fewest shots conceded to their opponents (70), just one step behind those who excel in this statistic (Modena with 67 and the best defense together with Palermo).
