Catanzaro Attack Faces Mantova Road Defence

Catanzaro sit 18th after four defeats in five games and average just one goal scored per match. At home that scoring rate stays at one goal a game across their five league fixtures. Mantova sit third and have conceded only one goal a game on their travels this season. In the last four head-to-head meetings Catanzaro managed two wins and two draws yet still produced under 2.5 total goals in half of those contests. Mantova themselves have seen both teams score in four of their five league games so far. The visitors also average two goals scored per game overall. How Catanzaro’s forward line copes with Mantova’s organised back line may decide whether the home side can break their low-scoring pattern.
