However, a local court in the Sicilian city and the Italian football authorities reached an agreement to see a two-week delay.

It will be the first match back at Catania's Angelo Massimino stadium since a policeman was killed at a Sicilian derby against Palermo in February.

Since then, Catania's 'home' matches have been played behind closed doors at neutral grounds in northern Italy, to reduce the chances of crowd trouble.
