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).
