Our prediction for this Serie B match:
Palermo will try to clinch sixth place in the standings when they take on Sudtirol in the decider on Friday evening. The Sicilians have already booked their spot in the playoffs, but they surely want to put icing on the cake on a very successful season. Claudio Gomes limped off with injury in the last league match, with Liam Henderson likely to step up. Francesco Di Mariano remains on the sidelines with a knee injury, while midfielder Aljosa Vasic faces race against the clock to be fit for Friday’s clash.
Sudtirol, on the other hand, failed to qualify for the playoffs, meaning that the lack of confidence could prove to be a big problem for the home side. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the Sicilian outfit. Simone Davi is banned for the home side, while both Filippo Scaglia and Fabian Tait are out of contention with injuries.
