Palermo vs Spezia prediction, H2H - December 1, 2024
Palermo
Spezia
On December 1st, the 15th round of Serie B in Italy will take place at the "Renzo Barbera" stadium, where Palermo vs Spezia will be played. I suggest placing a bet on goals, cards, or the winner.
Palermo
The team recently played, and successfully, in Serie A. While they didn't exactly shine in the top flight, they brought new players to the forefront and played decent football. However, they eventually fell due to financial rather than sporting issues. Their new start began with investors from the Middle East, the owners of Manchester City, joining the project. The plans are ambitious, but so far, they have managed to rise to Serie B, finishing sixth but falling in the playoffs.
Palermo’s new journey is being led by Alessio Dionisi, but it has not been particularly successful, to put it mildly. The ambitious club wins about a third of its matches. However, they haven’t been losing frequently in recent games. They also drew with Sampdoria 1-1.
Spezia
The club surprisingly earned promotion to Serie A in 2020, for the first time in its history. Even more surprisingly, they managed to stay there for three consecutive seasons, and could have lasted all four—until a tough playoff defeat to Verona in 2023. After returning to Serie B, Spezia lingered near the relegation zone but finished the season in 15th place.
Under Luca d'Angelo, the team has noticeably improved. They are now seriously contending for promotion back to Serie A. Until the end of autumn, they managed to go unbeaten in Serie B, even though many of their games ended in draws. However, in the most recent round, they defeated Südtirol 3-0.
Match Facts
- Palermo has lost 1 of their last 5 matches.
- Spezia has not lost this season, although they were knocked out of the Coppa Italia by Salernitana on penalties after a 3-3 draw.
- Palermo wins the first half in 43% of their matches, while Spezia wins in 30% of their matches.
Head-to-Head (H2H)
There have been nine previous encounters between the teams. Spezia won the first and most recent meetings. They lost one more match, with all others ending in draws.
Palermo vs Spezia Prediction
Bookmakers do not believe the hosts will break Spezia's unbeaten run. The visitors are expected to remain unbeaten again (odds – 1.79).
