Ascoli vs Catanzaro, 9 January 2027, Serie B: form, head-to-head and match facts

Ascoli, sitting fifth in the table with ten points from three wins, a draw and a single loss and a solid 7‑4 goal difference, will host a struggling Cat Canzaro, who occupy the nineteenth spot with just three points after one victory and four defeats and a 5‑9 deficit. The home side’s recent form, highlighted by a unbeaten run in four of their last five games, gives them a clear edge, while Catanzaro will be desperate to pick up points to distance themselves from the relegation zone. Historically the two clubs have met infrequently, but Ascoli have generally held the upper hand, and the gap in both points and goal difference suggests a comfortable night for the hosts. A win for Ascoli would cement their push for the top‑four, whereas a draw could revive Catanzaro’s fading hopes of climbing out of the bottom three.
