Palermo hosts Spezia in round 36 of Italian Serie B. The match will be played on Wednesday, May 1st at Stadio Renzo Barbera (Palermo)
Palermo will at least take part in play-off matches for the right to promote. But it still has a chance to get through to Serie A directly, swapping places with Lecce, which is currently second in the standings. The Eagles themselves are now on the 3rd line and are only 2 points behind the competitor. In truth, there are only 3 rounds left.
Spezia also has a chance to take part in transitional games for the right to promote to the highest division. Now the team shares 6-7 places in the top seven, having equal points with Cittadella, but only 1 point ahead of the 8th Perugia. By the way, Spezia tied a home draw with the latter in the last round.

The teams seem to respect each other excessively. Over the past 6 years, they played 6 games. Each team has 1 home victory under its belt; the rest of the matches ended in a draw. Definitely, Palermo won’t be pleased with the draw; this result can do much harm to Spezia either. Both teams need all three points now. In this situation, the hosts look more preferable candidate for the possession of these points.
Spezia lost 9 of 16 away matches. It lost in 4 of 5 recent visits either. In turn, Palermo lost only 1 time at home in the current championship. The team won in 3 of the last 4 games in its field. And only in the last match, it drew a tie, underestimating the last team in the table, Padova. Surely, that lesson will benefit the Eagles, and there will be no underestimation in the forthcoming match. On the contrary, the hosts will show everything what they are capable of and will score the 3 points that are necessary to fight for the direct promotion to Serie A.
Prediction for the match: Palermo to win
