Cittadella-Palermo is valid for the 20th day of the Serie B championship: where to watch it on TV and streaming, probable formations and predictions
Serie A is only two points away. Surely Gorini’s Cittadella is the revelation team of this beginning of the season, a formation that is doing great and that not only wins matches with extreme ease, but that succeeds, above all, even in negative moments, not to lose. And that definitely makes a difference.
The Veneti’s 2024 starts again against Palermo, a formation, Corini’s, that has only one point less in the standings and that is trying to make the market to take the Serie A directly. Besides Parma, which by now seems to be on its way to direct promotion, the others (there are also Como and Cremonese) are all in the running. And so yes, this is indeed an important match that could even give some decisive indications for who can really dream of jumping to the next category without going through the playoffs.
One thing is for sure: the Rosanero were built in the summer with this goal in mind and now that negotiations are reopened they are looking for graft-see Ranocchia from Empoli, who seems really close-to further strengthen the squad. We don’t think it all comes down to this match, but we think an outside win (very difficult, anyway) could speed things up. So what? So let’s look below at what we think is the outcome that could come out.
The Cittadella-Palermo prediction
In the meantime, we are certain of one thing: both formations over the course of ninety minutes will find their way to the net. And then? And then we think it is difficult right now for Cittadella to beat the Rosanero, so at best an outside shot could come up. But, at the end of the day, a draw is the most likely outcome.
The likely lineups
CITTADELLA (4-3-1-2): Kastrati; Salvi, Pavan, Negro, Carissoni; Vita, Branca, Carriero; Cassano; Pittarello, Magrassi.
PALERMO (4-3-3): Pigliacelli; Graves, Nedelcearu, Ceccaroni, Lund; Henderson, Stulac, Segre; Insigne, Brunori, Di Francesco.
POSSIBLE RESULT: 1-1
