Palermo-Napoli: derby of the two Sicilies

Statistics for the match between Palermo and Napoli are quite peculiar. This match is known as "derby of the two Sicilies" for historical reasons.

The match of tonight will be tough as the two teams are healthy and in particular Palermo have an 8-game unbeaten streak at Stadio Barbera. Moreover they haven't conceded many goals in these last eight matches.

But Napoli can count on Hamsik and Maggio, who have scored respectively seven and four goals against Palermo.

We are sure that we are going to see a good match, as the game played at San Paolo between these two teams was a thrilling 3-3.

Parma, the difficult moment of Italian football

Finally we know who the new chairman of Parma is, but probably is too late to save the club from relegation.

It is absolutely sad to see a club that once was glorious being one step from the edge of bankruptcy.

Parma are obviously at the bottom of the table and it seems that only a miracle could save "I Ducali".

Every Serie A enthusiast now hopes to see Parma playing at least in Serie B the next year because the risk of bankruptcy is still concrete.
