Catania vs Messina preview and prediction
Messina make the trip to Catania on Sunday 24 April 2022 for a Serie C - Girone C fixture. The Elo numbers point one way: Catania rate 1574 at home, against 1454 for Messina.
Catania are blowing hot and cold: their last five read D D D D W. They are unbeaten in five. The last five for Messina go L W D W D, and on that evidence they are blowing hot and cold.
On their own patch Catania are scoring 0.8 and letting in 0.6 per game. On the road Messina score 1.0 a game and concede 1.0. Don't expect a goal-fest. The two sides' scoring and conceding rates add up to 2.2 a game, so unders appeal. Defensively Catania stand out: 40% of their games have ended with a clean sheet.
