Tonight on the pitch for the return matches, then tomorrow morning immediately the draws
Tonight we will know the five teams that will reach the quarter-finals (second round of the national phase) together with the three runners-up, including Padova, the last to enter the scene. The first round of the national playoff phase therefore ends with the five return matches, which will start at 8.30pm (except Vicenza-Taranto, which starts at 9pm for the live broadcast on Rai Sport). The game will be played on the pitches of the five seeded teams: here is the program (live on TV and streaming on Sky and Now). Benevento-Triestina (1-1); Carrarese-Perugia (2-0); Casertana-Juventus NG (1-0); Catania-Atalanta U23 (1-0); Vicenza-Taranto (1-0).
FANS The fans know this and there will be around 45,000 in the stands tonight. In Catania there will be the usual 20 thousand to defend the one-goal advantage obtained on the Atalanta U23 pitch. Sold out also in Vicenza, with 10 thousand spectators (1,200 from Taranto) here too to secure the 1-0 of the first leg. 6 thousand are expected in Benevento for the most balanced match, given the draw in Trieste, while the third sold out is in Caserta, even after the 1-0 on the Next Gen pitch. Finally there is Carrara, where for the match perhaps more successful (2-0) there will be 3,000 against Perugia, who will be followed by 212 fans who believe in the feat.
