Crisis for Palermo and we might argue is the final wake up call to win these last 4 games expecting a miracle for salvation. Palermo risking to be relegated to Serie B next season. This match is just a battle for salvation. There are no precedents between Frosinone vs Palermo in Serie A at the Matusa Stadium. Only 1 point difference ……
