Both teams suffered another black sunday in Premier league: Liverpool suffered another away lost match (against Manchester United by 2-0) confirming an unpredictable fragility on the road, while Reading collected the 2nd home defeated in a row (after Chelsea) from Arsenal (by 0-4).

The next round of Premier legue has big matter for both sides, so today Benitez will rest many regulars out of game (Gerrard, Finnan, Xabi Alonso, Hyyppia and Callagher on all), while Coppel, manager of Reading, will operate a turn-over too, in order to give more space to the second lines and to prepare the first XI for the next weekend match.

Considering that both sides will use young players and many men from bench, I prefer to give trust to the resources of the Reds.

Palermo will face the regional derby standing at the top of the table (equally points with Inter).

Palermo came out for a prodigious away win (against Milan by 2-0) where the sicilians have shown their best charateristics: strong defensive line and unbelievable chances to create chances to score with all the components of the middle line, remembering always for the dangerous couple of strikers Di Michele-Amauri.
Surely the home history of starting season show us such as Palermo suffered 9 goals, in 3 matches played, from teams no irresistible for sure, but also Palermo scored something like 11 goals in 3 games, becoming the strongest attack front of Serie A.
For the match probable turn-over for Diana (mid) and Biava (def): middle line composed by Simplicio-Bresciano-Guana-Corini; Di Michele (or even Brienza) to support Amauri in advanced line; Barzagli and Zaccardo both central defenders to cover the keeper Fontana (Agliardi still injuried).

Messina will recover the midfielders Coppola and Cordova (both stopped from 1 suspension round in the last sunday mach): Giordano wants to renforce the middle zone with 5 regulars in line, so Masiello to start to replace one pure forward (Di Napoli and Floccari both in bench), while the veteran Christian Riganò will be the only adavanced point.
In defensive line out of service (for 1 month due to injurie) the expert Mark Juliano.

Palermo has the morale state at the stars and Favorita stadium will be, another time, full of hot crowd to push rosanero to continue the road at the top of the table; Messina, by the other side, has shown to be solid, but also to suffer the total pressing that usually Palermo does: that explain at the best the choice to create a wall in the middle zone, but I guess that Palermo will have the patience and the experience to don't fall in the same mistakes of the last home match (lost from Atalanta by 2-3).

I choose this tough game as my Danish League pick. It looks very unpredictable, but on the other side, I see Silkeborg in slight upward trend while Viborg really dont have much to show lately.

In such games, home advantage is important. But we can reveal some shocking numbers: Silkeborg lost all 6 home games so far and Viborg lost 5 out of 6 aways, 4 on the trot! So, we actually have two teams that are terrible in position like this one!

One trend will stop here and I see Silkeborg as the better team. They are solid away from home and must be able to show improvment at home, too. They were near against Esbjerg ,where they lost at the end (1-2). Viborg was awful in last 4 games, losing three without scoring and winning the only one against- Vejle.

Level balls handicap looks fair bet here. I expect silkeborg to win this 2-1

Quarterfinals are on program in Slovenian Cup this midweek and this game really pops out.

There is a huge difference between these two teams, on one side we have poor second division team Rudar and on the other we have a team, that sdhould fight for the title in division one next season and have many "stars" in their team, under lead of in-form Croatian striker Zahora.

The difference between two leageus in Slovenia is big, Koper is by far the better team.
