A spot in the Serie B playoffs semis will be at stake when Palermo and Sampdoria, the two old rivals, face each other at Stadio Renzo Barbera on Friday evening. Palermo finished the regular season with a 1-0 win over Sudtirol, with the team putting an end to their dreadful winless run, but they still face an uphill task against La Samp. On-loan midfielder Liam Henderson is pushing for a start, while Romania defender Ionut Nedelcearu serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards.
Andrea Pirlo’s men, on the other hand, have been producing fine performances in the second half of the season. Palermo, though, are tough to beat in Sicilia and, taking everything into account, a close encounter is on the cards. Speaking of the visiting side, forward Estanis Pedrola remains in the recovery room, while midfielder Ronaldo Vieira faces race against the clock to be fit for the quarter-final clash.
