PREVIEW - GUARDIAN THISTLE

GENOA - Dunfermline will lock horns with Primevera title defenders Guardian Thistle, for what will be a Scottish derby to all effects, by the evidence of the name the opponents proudly bear.
Thistle were beaten 3-2 by Grifone 2007 on the opening day of their title defending quest, while the Pars played out a hard-fought 3-3 draw against Genova '07.
For the game, scheduled to get underway at 10 pm on Wednesday 24th, Alessandro Merello and Davide Ducco should both eventually make their debuts in a competitive game for the club, after missing out on the first group game earlier this week.

With Buccianti still away on international aid duty, Filippi otherwise engaged and Crosetti loaned out to Olimpique Sampedenna for the whole duration of the competition, the roster at Vanin's disposal should be the following

01 Marco Semino
12 Leonardo Perugini

04 Alessandro Merello
10 Fabio Frassinelli
14 Davide Ducco

05 Aldo Marletta
06 Marco Cantelli
11 Matteo Bovalino
15 Filippo Finotti

07 Stefano Rossi


MANAGER: Luigi Vanin
