Palermo manager Eugenio Corini will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 1-1 draw in his team's last league outing against Ternana.  During that encounter they had 55% possession and had 16 attempts on goal with 5 on target, while their opponents hit 4 of their 16 shots on goal.  

It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 5 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 7 goals shipped and valuable points dropped.  They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.  

Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.

Catanzaro will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 2-0 win in their home outing against Cosenza.  In that game they had 44% possession and managed 12 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Cosenza who had 14 attempts and 4 on target.  

Vincenzo Vivarini will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 8 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 5 goals and, as a result, lost some important points.  They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games on the road.  

In terms of results, it's been a bit of a mixed bag for Catanzaro recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 games.  

Jari Vandeputte will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Palermo in this match, having already scored 2 goals in his last 6 away games for Catanzaro.
