“Palermo, all victories. Turning point to be completed”, headlines the Corriere dello Sport.
The 5th or 6th place in the playoffs is at stake.
After a period without significant victories, Palermo finds itself at an important crossroads, needing to win against Reggiana to not only gain momentum for the end of the season, but also to consolidate an advantageous position for the playoffs. Mignani’s strategy is focusing on stabilizing the team by reducing errors and wasted opportunities, but the challenge now is to transform this stability into victories.
The calendar doesn’t help, presenting matches against teams who, although they are behind in the standings, have a lot to play for and could prove to be treacherous opponents. Palermo will therefore have to demonstrate a leap in mental quality and know how to capitalize on favorable episodes during matches. The pressure is on, but a victory could not only improve morale but also almost mathematically guarantee a place in the play offs, especially if accompanied by favorable results in other fields.
