Our prediction for this Serie B match:
A spot in the Serie B playoffs final will be at stake when Venezia and Palermo lock horns at Stadio Pierluigi Penzo. I Lagunari are eager to defend their one-goal lead in front of home fans and we are positive that they will adopt a cautious approach in the reverse fixture. With no fresh injury worries to report, Paolo Vanoli is unlikely to make changes to the team that faced the Sicilians in the first leg.
Palermo, on the other hand, have no other option but to go all guns blazing at Venezia. As the hosts will have a number of opportunities to seal the victory on the break, home win should definitely be considered. Kristoffer Lund is a major doubt after limping off with injury in the first leg, whereas defender Pietro Ceccaroni remains on the sidelines with injury for the visiting team.
