Palermo-Ternana is a match of the 27th day of Serie B and is played on Tuesday at 8:30 p.m.: odds, predictions, live TV and streaming.
Behind Parma, which is now sailing undisturbed toward Serie A, there are four teams packed within just two points. Among them we also find Eugenio Corini’s Palermo: the rosanero, despite numerous ups and downs, are only two points behind Venezia, in the middle of the race for second place and direct promotion.
The Sicilians have just squandered a huge opportunity in the direct clash with Cremonese: despite a two-goal lead (Brunori, Ranocchia) and numerical superiority against the grigiorossi, last Saturday they let themselves be caught again at the beginning of the second half by Giovanni Stroppa’s team, conceding two goals in the space of a minute (2-2). A tie that leaves a bitter taste in the mouth, especially since it came after three good wins in a row against Bari, Feralpisalò and Como. The rosanero will try to quickly forget the half-hearted misstep in the midweek round: they will have to deal with Ternana, in the midst of a fight to avoid relegation. The Umbrians have recovered thanks to the arrival of Roberto Breda but for now they remain in the red zone, -4 from sixth-last Pisa and as of today they would be in Serie C without going through the playout. Rossoverdi in any case undefeated for three days: at home they did not go beyond two draws with Spezia (1-1) and Lecco (0-0), while in the last away match they made the big hit against Alessandro Nesta’s Reggiana, beaten 2-0.
Palermo-Ternana: the latest lineup news
Corini on the left defensive outfield meditates on deploying Lund from the 1′, also complicit in the discomfort Gomes felt during the Cremona match. In front, Traoré, the young striker arrived from Milan in the winter market, should instead find space: ready for a place in the trident with Di Mariano and Brunori.
On the other side, Breda will respond with a more covered 3-5-2, with Pereiro and Raimondo forming the attacking pair. On the outside lanes Casasola and Carboni.
The Prediction
Field factor, higher quality, offensive power: between Palermo and Ternana the gap is clear and there is little doubt about who is the favorite in the challenge of the “Barbera”. Watch out, however, for the Rossoverdi, who will travel to Sicily without fear and with the tranquility of those who have nothing to lose. The number of total goals in all likelihood will be between two and four.
The probable formations of Palermo-Ternana
PALERMO (4-2-3-1): Pigliacelli; Diakité, Nedelcearu, Ceccaroni, Lund; Gomes, Segre; Di Mariano, Ranocchia, Traorè; Brunori.
TERNANA (3-5-2): Iannarilli; Sgarbi, Capuano, Lucchesi; Casasola, Luperini, Amatucci, Faticanti Carboni; Pereiro, Raimondo.
POSSIBLE RESULT: 2-0
