Best Tip: Palermo to win

A Serie B win on home turf for Filippo Inzaghi's Palermo side win in the win / draw / win market is what we're predicting. Stats suggest they're in strong form across a number of key metrics, and they should have too much for the opposition. The odds from the bookies suggest the same, and when that happens you've know you're not going against the market. A Palermo win is the way to go, even if a tight match is possible.
