Catanzaro, Recent FormThe Catanzaro squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 1-0 away defeat against Reggiana, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. Their share of possession in that meeting was 61%, while racking up 7 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Reggiana, who had 8 shots on goal with 2 on target.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 8 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 6 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points.
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.
Lecco, Recent FormLecco will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 2-1 winners in their home fixture against Sudtirol. They achieved 50% possession in that match and had 10 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Sudtirol's tally of 12 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
It seems pretty certain that Emiliano Bonazzoli will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 7 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 8 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 away games, and over the course of the season they have failed to score in 5 of their 10 games on the road.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 away games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
The last league encounter between these two sides concluded with a 3-4 win for Catanzaro.
With no real injury worries, Catanzaro manager Vincenzo Vivarini will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
There is only really one injury concern for the Lecco manager Emiliano Bonazzoli ahead of this clash, with Artur Ioniţă (Knee) missing out, which gives Bonazzoli a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
