Serie C Playoffs: Quarter-Final Draw Made, Bracket Set

Seeded clubs will advance if the aggregate score is level.

Overview

  • The draw at Sky Sport, conducted by Fabio Pecchia on Thursday, set the quarter-final field and locked in legs for May 17 and May 20.
  • The bracket pairs Casarano with Brescia, Salernitana with Ravenna, Potenza with Ascoli, and Lecco with Catania.
  • These ties run over two legs under a rule that sends the seeded team through if the aggregate is level, and the seeds host the return match.
  • Brescia, Ascoli and Catania join as second-place finishers with seed status, while Ravenna carries a seed as the best third from the prior round.
  • The path to the lone Serie B promotion continues with semi-finals on May 24–27 and a two-leg final on June 2–7, after a first round marked by Casarano’s 0-3 away comeback and Lecco’s 98th-minute penalty.
