With two defeats in their last two league games, Walter Zenga's Catania have compromised their chances of staying in Serie A, after it seemed certain they would avoid the drop. Currently they are just one point above the relegation zone with only two games to go, and tomorrow they are facing a tough away game against Juventus.
The Bianconeri have already ensured they will finish third this season, so perhaps their motivation for this game won't be huge. Zenga can also take heart from Catania's good performance in the Coppa Italia against Roma, whom they held to a 1-1 draw, although it wasn't enough to reach the final.
"At the moment the team is doing well and I think we can repeat our performances in the last 4-5 games, which we always dominated," he said.
The coach doesn't think Juventus will be relaxed in this game: "There will be a full stadium. The Juve fans will be partying. If we manage to get a result it's not because they will be relaxed, it will be down to our merit. Our strong point is our conviction. Football is a nice sport because it's unpredictable and it gives you the chance to get a result against anyone."
