Juve and Catania ties rescheduled

The rescheduled dates for Juventus’ Serie B match with Cesena and the top flight encounter between Catania and Empoli have been announced by the Lega Calcio.

Juve’s meeting with Cesena at Turin’s Stadio Olimpico was called off just 30 minutes before kick-off on Friday evening after news that two Bianconeri youth team players had drowned in a tragic accident at their Vinovo training ground.

The tie was abandoned as a sign of respect for 17-year-olds Alessio Ferramosca and Riccardo Neri, but will now be played on Tuesday January 16, 2007 at 20.45 local time, 19.45 in the UK.

In Serie A, the Week 16 encounter Catania-Empoli was rained off on Sunday afternoon due to a thunderstorm that struck the Sicilian region.

It will now be played on Wednesday January 24, 2007 with a 20.30 kick-off local time (19.30 UK).
