Following his permanent transfer to Catania, Capuano maintained his starting place for the 2009–10 Serie A season, making 30 appearances, helping his side to a record points total for the club, in Serie A, which led to a 13th-placed finish in the table, as well as a quarter-final position in the Coppa Italia. Capuano held his starting left back position for the 2010-11 season, albeit injury, and scored one of the goals of the season in a 1-1 draw with Milan in October 2010. Capuano was part of a record-breaking Catania outfit that had picked up 56 points from 38 Serie A matches. This performance sees the club also break its record number of home victories in a single season, its record number of victories overall in a single top flight campaign, as well as its record points total in Serie A for the fifth consecutive season. In his five seasons with Catania, the club has achieved these five consecutive record points totals.
