2026-2027 Serie B: Pisa vs. Palermo, Probable Lineups

The Arena Garibaldi is set to host a crucial match for the aspirations of Pisa and Palermo. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m., with the Rosanero looking to defend their first-place position in the standings. Filippo Inzaghi’s team comes into the match off a 2-1 victory over Carrarese, while the Nerazzurri drew 1-1 on the road against Verona.

Paolo Bianco must deal with the absence of the suspended Calabresi, forcing the coach to reshuffle the back line. Bozhinov is the leading candidate to take his place, while the battle between Marras and Rao for the attacking midfield spot remains up in the air. Pittarello is expected to lead the attack in place of Petagna, with Moreo ready to support him in the attacking midfield.

For the Rosanero, Filippo Inzaghi could opt for a 4-3-3 formation, with Mazzitelli playing as a central midfielder alongside Ranocchia and Estevez. Up front, Gyasi is the favorite to start, completing the attacking trio with Pohjanpalo and Johnsen. The goal is to maintain the team’s momentum and defend their top spot in the standings.
