PREVIEW - Aston Villa Scassi

On a scintillating run of 12 wins in a row, The Pars will better be on their toes for their next tie, against bottom side Aston Villa Scassi, a team capable of collecting only 3 points, against fellow minnows Internazionale, from their 14 league outings in the league so far.
It'll come as little comfort toAston Villa that they scored their first two league goals against Dunfermline when the sides met in reverse fixtures last November, as they were thumped by 9 goals to 2 in what represented an absolute first time for the Fifers, who obtained an early whistle ending for the first time in their history.
This is because AICS provisions state that a game has to be declared over once either team reaches 9 goals - hence early whistle.
Gaffer Vanin will deploy Perugini in goal for a third successive game, although Semino has made his comeback from his trip to Santo Domingo and was on the stands to witness the win against New Reds Ponente at the weekend.
This is to reward Perugini for his brilliant performances in the games against Las Cuevas and New Reds, however Semino remains Dunfermline's No 1 and will be involved against Never Alone Soccer a week on Sunday.
Sicilian defender Giuseppe Buttitta is going to miss out through a thigh strain, but all other regular defenders are available, whereas Borreani is going to be left out in favour of Alessio Di Noto, and the pair will swap roles next week.
Top scorer Buccianti will be serving a one-match-ban, following his third yellow card in the league, a suspension the Tuscan-born striker had actually sought after, as his services may well be much more necessary on other occasions.
Alberga should feature instead, although he's not entirely likely to be given his first start in a Pars' shirt, and his involvement will most probably concern the second half of the match.
