PREVIEW - Borussia

Dunfermline have a glorious chance to cap their brilliant season off next Monday, as they will be crowned league group champions should they beat 7th placed Borussia
This'd represent a relevant achievement, considering that this is only the second term in the Genoese Pars' history and also taking into account what the club had to go through at the beginning of the present season, at all levels.
Albeit not decisive for promotion to the second tier of AICS football just yet, securing Group B top spot would guarantee the lads a slightly easier path during their undertaking of the initial Excellence Playoffs phase, with the likes of Moro Populars, Hellas Begato and Massacroni most likely to feature in the same group including only 1st and 2nd placed sides from the 4 Division C groups.
Anything but a win, on the other hand, would most probably hand the title to currently 2nd Amici di Berto, who'll take on an out-of-motivation Aston Villa Scassi side on Sunday and seem set to snatch all 3 points.

Gaffer Vanin will have a bit of a selection headache for the goalkeeping post, as all three goalkeepers, Perugini, Minnella and Semino are available.
However, it is understood that Semino will play what could well be his last game of the season and Perugini should be his understudy, with Minnella set to be involved more consistently in the finals, following his good performance on his debut day for Dunfermline, against Le Café last weekend.
Frassinelli and Filippi are both a yellow-card away from suspension, which would be absolutely dreadful ahead of the forthcoming finals, considering all cards will be waived once the regular season has reached its completion.
This'd almost certainly represent a good chance for Buttitta to start the game, the Canadian/Sicilian defender having proven once again a solid alternative against Le Café.
In midfield, Marletta will return after his one-game-ban and is likely to feature alongside Bovalino and Di Noto, whereas Borreani looks set to miss this one and Alberga's involvement appears doubtful.
Upfront, the club's main goalgetter Marco Cantelli could either be deployed wide on the flank owing to the width of the Ca de Rissi pitch, or contend a place to other in-form star Alberto Buccianti.
Moreover, it appears as a done deal the signing of American forward Drew Fasolini, whose first appearance for the club took place during the friendly game against Archinav last week.
His first goal, on the other hand, came courtesy of a brilliant Cantelli's through ball against Calcio Coop later that week, in a friendly tournament that saw the Pars defeated at the hands of Terranuova by 4 goals to 3 (goals from Cantelli, Marletta and Frassinelli), whilst Dunfermline had more luck against Calcio Coop themselves, by easing to an 8-4 win (Marletta 2, Cantelli 3, Fasolini, Frassinelli, Buttitta).



When the sides met in reverse fixtures earlier this year, Dunfermline collected a 4-2 home win courtesy of a sound display of strength in depth.
Cantelli opened the scoring with a sound finish on the volley after coolly turning following a deadly first touch. It was then a Borreani show, the winger providing Marletta and Bovalino with two fantastic deliveries to have the Pars on a 3 goal lead by half-time.
Late on, Borussia pulled two back to scare Dunfermline a wee bit, before Marletta sealed a precious 9th win in a row with a neat finish from just outside the box.
