PREVIEW - Real Bonarda

Dunfermline will be on the hunt for a 7th successive league win as they take on Real Bonarda at their home ground Ungaretti on Sunday 8th February.
The Pars currently sit 3rd in the league table, while Bonarda occupy 9th position, just one point adrift of the playoff zone at the moment.
When these sides met in reverse fixtures earlier this term, Dunfermline were worthy 5-1 victors courtesy of goals from Gallo, Lenza, Cantelli and a brace from Maneschi, whose contibutions cancelled out the initial lead the hosts were provided with by Gazzetta.

Dunfermline No 1 Semino has been dispensed from featuring in this match, meaning that Perugini will exert his double capacity of coach and goalkeeper, while Crosetti is also expected to miss out on the game, with the defensive pack consisting of only Filippi and Frassinelli, although Bovalino, a natural midfield player, has been deployed in defence recently, with excellent results.
The other available midfielders will be Marletta, on the hunt for his 60th club goal, Boccaccio, Maneschi, and Cantelli, who will be looking to reach a landmark 50th goal for the club as well.
Upfront, Buccianti is the man and, should he manage a further hat-trick following the one against Real Sampie, he, too, would reach a significant contribution of 40 club goals.
