On the eve of the home match against Palermo, coach Luca D'angelo spoke in the usual pre-match conference: "We have trained knowing that it is a fundamental match for us, the important thing will be the attitude we will put in during the whole game. Palermo is a very strong team, with a well-prepared coach, it won't be an easy match, but we know we need a full result.
I expect a different match to the one in the first leg, Spezia is not the one of 5-6 months ago and we can't refer to that match, both of us have changed coaches and we first of all made important changes to the roster.
On 1 May 2006 Spezia conquered a historic goal by returning to Serie B after a long time, on the same day we are called to bring home another important challenge, in any case, more than in the cabala I believe in the weekly work we do on the field.
Verde is a player with important physical characteristics, the evaluations of the last match were made from a tactical point of view, he has played many matches consecutively and is a strong player, but he must be 100% to play. I'll play the ones I think are better, those who have recovered will play, those who haven't recovered will enter the game in progress.
Regarding the problems in scoring, the team always creates a lot of chances, it's not a matter of form or players, we know we have to do more from that point of view, I'm not just talking about the forwards, but also the midfielders.
The ‘Picco' will be a very important factor, the fans have always been close to us, even in Brescia, and I am convinced they will be also tomorrow in such an important match.
Kouda is a player who plays well, he has 2-3 goal balls every game and that is definitely his merit, he is lacking the decisive strike at the moment, but I am sure there will come a day when he will score a double or a hat-trick.
All the players who are doing well can play, we can't burn out a substitution after 45 minutes, so they have to give me the chance to be able to keep an hour on their legs; we have various realistic hypotheses of great ductility, for example Bandinelli, who is a player who can play on the wing, further out or in a more offensive role, as ductility is his best weapon.
Jagiello is feeling better, he doesn't have 90 minutes in his legs due to a heel problem that he's been carrying around for 10 days, he hasn't trained much but he's definitely better and in this final he'll certainly be able to give us a hand, we'll see if he'll start or join in the game.
We work a lot, we do a lot of exercises, but I'm convinced that tomorrow if my boys are in touch with the goalkeeper they will be able to score."
