Pescara and Palermo are both riding high in the Serie B with their 5th and 3rd positions respectively. Expect a great game!
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Pescara and Palermo. Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game! Palermo have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
