Catania

Catania was unable to build on a victory over Lazio after a 2-1 defeat at Udinese in the last round. The loss leaves the Elefanti without an away win this season having notched up a hefty 12 away defeats. On Sunday the Rossazzurri entertain fellow relegation battlers Reggina in a key six-pointer. Coach Walter Zenga is under no illusions as to the importance of Sunday's game for both sides. "It is right to consider the match with the Calabrians a play-off," he said. "Catania at home must make the most of the public support. The support that helped us beat both Napoli and Lazio." Last season the Sicilians were hammered 4-1 in the same fixture and will be well aware they cannot afford to slip up this time around.
