Palermo take on the visitors Pescara in the round 18 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Thursday, December 22nd at Stadio Renzo Barbera (Palermo).
Palermo are showing awful results at home, losing all eight home fixtures of the season. It comes as quite a surprise as the team showed their best results at home in previous season. At the same time, the matchup against Pescara is the best chance to end this series as the visiting side has only one win of the season and defeat to this team will be complete disaster. The hosting side should be in good condition as they’ve taken away league win in previous match, taking wild 4-3 win over Genoa last weekend as Palermo were down 1-3 at 68th minute but managed to score three goals. Usually, such games give positive impulse and start streaks of positive results.

We should also keep in mind that such poor results of Palermo at home were caused by tough schedule as seven of these defeats were recorded against teams from the top half of the standing and Sassuolo, who have great potential. Away schedule of the hosts wasn’t that difficult and Palermo managed to score in all nine away games one the season, gaining points in Milan, Bergamo, Genoa, Sampdoria and Crotone.
At the same time, Pescara are one of the team candidates for relegation. The visiting side recorded no wins so far this season except one which was awarded to them in the match against Sassuolo which was initially lost. The team is hopeless as their lost first halves and matches in five out of last six games. Pescara also won’t be counting on their key footballer Verre. Palermo proved they have character and if they plan to end their poor streak, there is no better opportunity than matchup with Pescara.
Prediction for the match: Palermo to win with 0.0 Asian handicap.
