Palermo vs Reggiana prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups - October 26, 2024
Palermo
Reggiana
On October 26, the "Renzo Barbera" stadium will host the 10th round of Italy’s Serie B, where Palermo will face Reggiana. Experts at Dailysports have prepared an individual match prediction.
Palermo
Palermo has a rich but challenging history. The club has produced many stars for Italian and world football, yet, like many others, it found itself on the brink of bankruptcy. However, this period also marked the entry of new investors, the same group behind Manchester City. Last season, Palermo made an attempt to return to Serie A, finishing sixth in the regular season but performing poorly in the playoffs.
So far, the appointment of Alessio Dionisi has not paid off. Under the former Sassuolo manager, the "Rosanero" have been underwhelming. They were thrashed 0-5 in the cup by Napoli and have struggled to win consecutive matches. Even against Modena, they could only manage a 2-2 draw.
Reggiana
Reggiana has also undergone several restarts, including a recent one. But this revival gave them momentum, and by 2020, after a couple of promotions, the "Granata" returned to Serie B for the first time since the late 20th century. However, they have not been able to progress further, finishing 11th last season.
In the current campaign, Reggiana has further declined. After a promising start (a 0-1 cup loss to Genoa followed by seven points from their first three matches), the club could only manage losses or scoreless draws. Then, surprisingly, they defeated Frosinone 2-0.
Match Facts
- Palermo has won three of their last eight matches.
- Reggiana secured their first win in six matches.
- Palermo wins the first half in 44% of their matches, while Reggiana does so in 25%.
