Let's all look at Palermo - Venezia! Even with their varied results, this match should be great fun!
- Venezia is in the worst form (0-1-5)
It's quite the trip for Venezia when visiting Palermo as the cities are 1400 kilometers apart.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Palermo form and stats
Palermo have played 7 Serie B games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-2-2 (wins-draws-losses).
Palermo are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 2-3 away versus Cosenza. The first setback in the shape of a defeat after going undefeated through four league rounds. Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at Brunori for missing a penalty kick versus Cosenza in the 90th minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome. The striker Brunori outshone all the other footballers in that fixture and was awarded a match rating of 8.02 out of 10. Brunori scored two goals.
Before that, Palermo had a home game versus Parma which ended with a victory 1-0.The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Palermo have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 9 matches with the results: Won 3, drawn 3 and lost 3.
It should be added that a peek at the 10 latest league matches shows that 8 of them qualified as a both teams not to score result (only one or none of the sides scored a goal).
The Palermo fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 9 in 7 matches.

Preceding that game, the 0-1 loss visiting Como's place.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Venezia playing away and similar expectations, we found 4 relevant matches. Results were 1 Venezia win, 1 draw and 2 defeats.
