Our prediction for this Serie B match:
All eyes will be on Stadio Alberto Picco when Spezia and Palermo square off against each other in a highly-anticipated Serie B game. The Bianconeri failed to win the previous four league matches. As a result, they are sitting in the relegation zone, but a triumph over Palermo could see them move away from the bottom five. Salvatore Elia is a major doubt after limping off with injury in a goalless draw with Brescia, while goalkeeper Gian Marco Crespi remains in the recovery room.
The Sicilians, on the other hand, are on a six-game winless run in the Italian second tier. Palermo failed to impress in a 2-1loss to Reggiana and seeing that they are with one foot in the Serie B playoffs, we are tempted to put our money on Spezia this time out. Francesco Di Mariano remains on the sidelines with a knee injury, while Palermo midfielder is a major doubt.
