However, in the first round, they failed to show their full strength – so far, Alessio Dionisi’s team occupies only 11th place in the table with 27 points, but at the same time, they are only two points behind sixth-placed Catanzaro. In the last round, Palermo unexpectedly lost 1:2 to Cittadella away, thus suffering their eighth defeat of the season.

2.25Tip and bets
Palermo has recently slowed down sharply, losing four of the last five matches of the championship, but the situation remains solvable. Today the eagles have an excellent opportunity to return to the playoff zone and bypass one of the direct competitors in the table, the hosts will certainly strive for victory. At home, Palermo, regardless of form and opponent, is traditionally very strong and it is unlikely that Modena, who lost their last two matches in Sicily, have a chance to get points.
We think that the guests have no chance. The betting tip is Palermo victory . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 2.05
Bet on total
Palermo will undoubtedly be maximally motivated today and no other result than victory will satisfy the hosts. Modena is unlikely to have a chance to play to zero in such a situation, the eagles are traditionally effective on their home field and have scored nine goals in the last two matches against the Canaries. At the same time, the Sicilians have obvious problems in defense, Modena is in excellent shape, has excellent implementation, and is quite capable of responding with one goal to the guests.
Bet - both teams to score. This bet is offered for 1.99
Bet on corners
