Fourth seasonal act of the match between Avellino and Catania, return match of the playoffs, with the rossozzurri strong from the 1-0 first leg. Only one network, however, represents a very minimal advantage. Especially considering the fact that, in this case, Avellino is seeded and a possible defeat at the “Partenio-Lombardi” would be fatal for Catania. Calm and chalk, then. As underlined by Mr. Zeoli on the eve, we will have to suffer as a team. All together. Compact.
On Tuesday the Etna people were looking for a victory with the scent of a feat and it arrived. But in order not to frustrate the efforts of “Massimino”, Catania will have to do something more. The rossozzurri will find a warm environment, in the presence of an opponent who promises to be fired up and highly motivated and who will try to make the best possible use of the push from the home crowd (the Irpinia company announced the sold out) to reverse the deficit of the first leg.
If on the one hand Avellino perhaps paid for the period of inactivity from official commitments, on the other hand Catania have so far played many close matches. This resulted the fatigue of some players in particular, as stated by Zeoli himself. Consequently, it is possible that the Lazio coach will make some changes in the starting eleven compared to Tuesday’s match.
Cellifor example, could be placed on the initial board as well as Kontek represents an option in midfield. Cicerelli and/or Di Carmine on the bench? We will see. Marsura, Chiricò, Chiarella and Costantino are also ready to give their contribution if Zeoli decides to call them into question. The coach evaluates the management of substitutions and playing time very carefully, deciding to also call up Peralta for the Avellino match, who for obvious reasons doesn’t have the 90 minutes in his legs. Bethers is also included in the call-up list.
Changes are also expected with regards to Avellino. Pazienza should change some interpreters, not necessarily the game system. For example by proposing, this time, from the 1st minute Gori paired with Patierno. The former Rossazzurro player Rocca is a candidate for a starting position in midfield, but there could also be some changes on the wingers, inserting players with different characteristics to try to put Catania in difficulty.
We remember the match it will be broadcast on television via Sky/NOW and Sestarete.
