Catanzaro – Benevento

The clash at the Stadio Nicola Ceravolo sees bottom‑of‑the‑table Catizzaro, sitting 19th with a solitary win from five games and a goal deficit of six, host a Benevento side that occupies a comfortable seventh place, having amassed seven points from two victories, a draw and two defeats while enjoying a modest +1 goal difference. Catizzaro’s fragile defence, which has conceded nine goals, will have to tighten up dramatically if they hope to halt their slide, whereas Benevento will look to build on the momentum generated by their recent win and maintain the slight edge they hold in the head‑to‑head record this season. Both teams know that three points could prove decisive – Catizzaro to climb out of the relegation zone and Benevento to cement a push for the playoff spots. The outcome will likely hinge on whether the hosts can finally turn their scoring woes around against a side that has already found the net six times.
