A mouthwatering clash between Serie B promotion favourites Palermo and Venezia will be on Destination Calcio TV after the latest round of live matches was announced.
Filippo Inzaghi’s Palermo and Giovanni Stroppa’s Venezia head the betting to claim the top two spots in the second tier and they meet in Sicily on Tuesday, September 30.
Venezia, as well as Monza, will be shown live and for free on three straight weeks after the picks for matchdays four, five and six were confirmed, while the Rosanero are on twice.
Inzaghi, who guided Pisa to promotion in May before opting to stay in the second tier, will send his side out to face Bari under the lights, in front of the cameras on Friday, September 19.
That weekend also sees the Venetians host Cesena and Monza entertain Sampdoria.
Like Inzaghi, Stroppa achieved promotion just a few months ago when he steered Cremonese through the play-offs before parting ways. On matchday five he is up against Spezia, the team he denied a place in the top flight with that final win.
Venezia vs Spezia is the first of two live matches on September 27, with Monza against Padova kicking off later that evening. Empoli against Carrarese is the following day.
Early indications are the race for a ticket to Serie A will be a thriller, with no team maintaining a 100 per cent start to the season. That is good news for Samp, who are not as far off the pace as they could be after losing two in a row.
They are in action against Catanzaro on October 1, the same day that Empoli and Monza, both relegated at the end of last season and both fancied to be challenging come the business end of the campaign, go head to head in Tuscany.
Each match is available across 51 territories. All of DCTV’s live Serie B broadcasts are shown in the USA, UK, Canada, Ireland, the Caribbean and South America.
