PREVIEW - Grifone 2007

GENOA - Dunfermline need a win from their last group game if they're to be certain of qualifying for the knockout stages of the Primavera Tournament.
Should they get defeated, no chance of going through will become available, whereas a draw could still see them through, although they'd be left relying on the other group encounter, between title holders Guardian Thistle and Genova '07, and the chances of a favourable combination of results appear to be rather limited should that be the case.
All in all, Dunfermline, in their relatively new shape, have looked competitive enough to battle it out with the best, although they still seem to lack some cutting edge, that "definitive" and defining act which separates the good from the great.
Gaffer Vanin should once again be able to count on all available members of the squad for the crucial tie, set to get underway at 9 pm on Wednesday, with both goalkeepers, Semino and Perugini, staking their respective claims for the No 1 jersey.
In defence, two among Frassinelli, Merello and Ducco will get the nod, with Ducco also a likely candidate for a midfield slot.
Talking of which, the whole central pack, consisting of Marletta, Bovalino, Finotti and Cantelli will be at the manager's disposal, with Rossi expected to start upfront.
Buccianti, who is expected to return from his international aid mission in Haiti, could join the ranks should the club go through to the next round.
