Team News
Bologna
Coach Pioli will be without both Perez and Mudingayi, so Khrin and Taider should play in the midfield. As Garics is still out, Pulzetti is going to patrol the right flank. Rubin and Morleo are in competition to play on the opposite side.
probable lineups : Gillet, Cherubin, Portanova, Antonsson, Morleo, Taider, Krhin, Pulzetti, Diamanti, Ramirez, Vaio. (3-4-2-1).

Palermo
Mutti is going to field a 3-5-2, with Munoz and Labrin partnering Mantovani in the defence. Hernandez looks favoured over Budan to join Miccolin up front. Zahavi and Ilicic will both be rested as the line-up doesn't require a trequartista.
probable lineups : Viviano, Munoz, Mantovani, Labrin, Pisano, Migliaccio, Donati, Barreto, Balzaretti, Hernandez, Miccoli. (3-5-2).

Bologna are certainly quite happy with their recent results and with
their position in the table as well. They now have three winnable
matches ahead, two of which will be at home, so that safety should only
be a matter of weeks away.
Palermo have been quite disappointing in recent matches, with 3
consecutive defeats and then 2 draws. The team are no longer aiming for
any European spots, so now the goal is to grab safety as soon as they
can, and maybe improve their away performances before the end of the
season.
Both teams have the same points and are quite distant from the
relegation zone. They could both go for the full prize here, and since
Palermo have always been quite an entertaining side, this could lead to
an open match with some goal scoring chances. Bologna will miss a couple
of key players in the midfield, so this may turn into the Rosanero's
best chance to win away from the Barbera for the very first time this
season.
Bologna 0 - 1 Palermo
