Palermo at home, Venice as a transfer. Benches with opposite performance
Palermo have achieved three of their four victories and also 11 of their 15 points in this championship away from home, so we can say that they are a team that feels a lot about the home factor. Venezia, which is not doing very well because it is in the penultimate position, is in any case the exact opposite, because it has scored 8 of the 9 points it has in the standings away from home, where it has also obtained the only two victories so far.
Were he still alive, Palermo-Venice would have been the personal derby of Maurizio Zamparini (who died on 1 February this year), volcanic president first of the lagoons and then of the rosanero, led to achieve extraordinary results, such as qualifying for the Europa League or the Italian Cup final.
Venezia have won the away match in Palermo on only three occasions out of 25 matches played between Serie A and Serie B (playoffs included). The latest success of the lagoon in Sicily? Palermo-Venice 0-2 on 10 November 2002 with goals from Brncic and Poggi. The rosanero have conceded only 13 goals in these 25 matches, in practice the average is one goal conceded every two games.
Venezia are the only Serie B team to have always conceded at least one goal in each match. Palermo have only sent six different goalscorers so far, only Cittadella and Perugia have done worse with five. The behavior of the benches of these two teams is radically different: the Venetians have to their credit 5 goals scored by players who entered the game in progress and are behind in this special classification only in Pisa (6) and Frosinone (7). Palermo is in the last group, including Genoa, Como and Bari with one goal.
