Corini's Palermo has lost ground in the playoff zone with ten games left in the Serie B regular season. The calendar now helps the rosanero team.

What happened?

Corini's team has abruptly slowed down in the promotion race, after only one point was gained in the last three games.

Why is it important for Palermo?

The regional daily newspaper emphasizes how the calendar now ideally lends a hand to Corini's team, which in theory still has time and margin to recover lost time and ground.

What comes next?

From now until the end of the regular season, Brunori and company will have to play only two direct matches, both at Barbera, against Venezia and Parma. The other eight matches will see Palermo opposed, at least on paper, to more manageable opponents or those that are certainly in a worse position in the standings.

The chances of relaunching and climbing positions in the playoff zone depend on the matches against the so-called small teams for the Sicilian team. At first glance, it might seem like good news, but the history of this championship teaches us that Palermo has unfortunately often stumbled against theoretically inferior opponents on a technical level and who were struggling in the lower zones of the standings.

What are the prospects for promotion?

Corini's team's promotion chances depend on matches against opponents like Cosenza, Reggiana, Spezia, Ascoli, and Sudtirol, against whom Segre and company will play for a prestigious position in the playoff key or maybe something more.
