Somebody help Catania!!!! Catania is even training closed doors trying to find the "magic formula" to change their standing.  Rumors of coach Atzori being sacked if losing this home game is still going on....  Problems for Catania also include a list of injured players and few recovering. Martinez and Spolli are training individually. Campagnolo following therapy.

Napoli is going to Catania with "a tank". Yep, "El tanque" Argentinian forward German Denis believing they can cause an upset. 

Catania and Napoli have played 11 times in the Serie A and Serie B and the numbers are in favor of Catania.

6 victories for  Catania
3 draw
2 victories for  Napoli

11 goals Catania
5 goals  Napoli

Last victory from Catania:
May 24, 2009 Catania 3 - 1 Napoli
Bogliacino (N), Morimoto (C), Mascara (C), Falconieri (C)

Last draw
December 4, 1983 0 - 0

Imagine that the only 2 times Napoli have won in Sicily is back to the times of the Serie B.  Yep!.

January 22, 1950: Catania 0 - 1 Napoli goal by Krieziu 
November 5, 2002: Catania 0 - 2 Napoli goals by Donigi (penP, and Sesa.

It might the moment for Napoli coach Walter Mazzarri to break this path and bring home the victory. However, if Catania loses, it might be the end of coach Atzori.......


Here is the probable formation for CATANIA:

(3-5-2Andujar, Potenza, Terlizzi, Augustyn, Bellusci, Biagianti, Carboni, Llama, Marchese, Mascara, Morimoto

Here is the probable formation for  NAPOLI:

Lazio is playing today the UEFA Europa League  while AC Milan played their Champions League match against Real Madrid on Wednesday.  Although Milan did not obtain the victory, the morale of the squad is high. Why?  Hello, Milan seems to have recovered their path for good games "as a group" after recovering Ronaldinho and Marco Borriello. 

A total different story is for Lazio having problems lately.  Besides the protests from Lazio fans against the squad, coach, and management, something is not working with Davide Ballardini's strategy.  Muslera  who i previous months was a super hero is making some innocent mistakes. Yet, this also applies to Milan goalkeeper Dida.  Surely, Dida was a hero in the match against Real Madrid by saving the powerful shot from forward RAUL in the last minutes who could have been the winning goal. It is also true that Dida is also making innocent, amateur mistakes.  So, in this point I might say both goalkeepers must show improvements.

On the disciplinary situation: Milan has no suspended players but it has 2 cautioned players:
Alessandro Nesta and Andrea Pirlo. Also for tLazio nosuspended players and two cautioned ones, Baronio and Kolarov.


Making matters worst for Lazio is their defeat in the UEFA Europa League against  Valencia today Thursday.


Here is the probable formation for LAZIO
:
(
4-3-1-2)  Muslera, Lichtsteiner, Siviglia, Radu, Kolarov, Brocchi, Baronio, Mauri, Matuzalem, Zarate, Rocchi

Here is the probable formation for AC MILAN:

(
4-2-3-1)   Dida, Oddo, Nesta, Thiago Silva, Zambrotta, Flamini, Pirlo, Pato, Seedorf, Ronaldinho, Borriello
