Palermo

DLDDWL

Palermo will be hoping to bounce back here after the 2-1 Serie B loss in their previous game against Cagliari.

In that match, Palermo had 47% possession and 17 shots at goal with 3 of them on target. The scorer for Palermo was Jacopo Segre (16'). For their opponents, Cagliari had 15 shots on goal with 7 on target. Alessandro Deiola (25') and Gianluca Lapadula (64') scored for Cagliari.

It has been all too rare in recent games that Palermo have shown defensive steel. The facts show that Palermo have been scored against in 5 of their previous 6 matches, leaking 8 goals along the way. That kind of pattern won’t necessarily be carried forward here, however.

Their past results show that Palermo:

• have not been beaten in the league by Brescia in their previous 2 matches.
• have not emerged victorious against Brescia in their last 3 league matches.
• are undefeated in their last 10 league matches at home. A very good run at home.

Looking at their form, and Brescia have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, seeing opposing sides hit 7 goals overall. Defensively, Brescia can certainly do much better.

Brescia boss Daniele Gastaldello has some current player fitness concerns. Andrea Papetti (Unknown Injury), Massimo Bertagnoli (Cruciate Ligament Injury) and Alexander Jallow (Knee Injury) will miss out on this game. Federico Viviani cannot play in this game through suspension.

From our viewpoint, Rondinelle appear most likely to begin the game with a 3-5-2 system by sending out Jesse Joronen, Luca Ceppitelli, Michael Svoboda, Andrea Carboni, Antonio Candela, Tanner Tessmann, M. Egill Ellertsson, M. Kofod Andersen, Francesco Zampano, Joel Pohjanpalo and Nicholas Pierini.

🧠 Prediction

Brescia are certainly able to find the back of the net against this Palermo outfit, although that probably shouldn’t be as many as they will have scored against them.

We’re tipping a close game with a 2-1 victory for Palermo by the time that the referee blows the final whistle. Should be an interesting one.
