Catania hosts Scafatese in historic Serie C matchup

Catania is set to host Scafatese in a Serie C Group C fixture. The match marks a historic first official meeting between the two clubs, as a previously scheduled encounter in the 1948/49 Serie C season was cancelled when Scafatese withdrew from the league due to financial difficulties.

Catania currently sits in 12th place and seeks to build momentum following a recent 4-0 victory against Cosenza, which helped end a period of inconsistent form. Scafatese, a newly promoted side, occupies 17th place and is fighting to secure points to avoid relegation. While Scafatese has shown offensive capability, they have struggled to secure wins in their recent outings.
