Serie B playoffs, five teams fighting for eighth place: all…
News: While Frosinone and Monza are playing for direct promotion to Serie A, there is another important verdict in view of the play-offs: the one for the eighth and final place valid for the playoffs. A five-way race that will all be decided in the space of ninety minutes this evening, on the last day of the regular season. Why eighth place is so important (also for Palermo) The format of the Serie B playoffs requires the fifth-placed team (Catanzaro, already confident of their placement) to face the eighth-placed team in the semi-final. The rest of the draw is already defined: Modena (6th) will challenge Juve Stabia (7th) in the other first round. Carrarese and Sampdoria, at 44, have a margin of error equal to zero: they must win and hope that none of the teams ahead of them do the same.
