On the eve of the match with Messina, coach Toscano responded to journalists' questions in the press room: "The situation of absences is a fact. At this moment we are not very lucky with disqualifications, unavailable players, and referee decisions, but we must be stronger even in this: you have to compensate by giving and doing something more. In a derby, the values are reset; the one who wants to make the history of derbies wins, and we must have this desire. Catania is a team that wants to return to victory; I have seen this desire in the eyes of the players. I told the players that even with one man less and maybe suffering, in Torre del Greco, if someone had done that little bit more in certain situations, victory would have been ours. A message to the fans? The stadium will be full as always, and it will not be a novelty; the message is to play together with us and support us for 95 minutes. I am sure that people will do it because they care about Catania and are recognizing the commitment of this team: everyone makes mistakes and has flaws, that's where you have to work, but I am convinced that they will support us and give us a big hand. The season is long, we must not look at the other teams and the standings but look at ourselves and give our best of what we are. Messina started with a very specific tactical idea, that of their coach, and changed it in the last two games; regardless of Messina's tactical attitude, it will be important that our players be "hungry for performance." Compared to the Turris match, we lose the two disqualified players and recover D'Andrea, who today had his first training session with the teammates: he will not be in perfect condition but he has made himself available."
