GENOA - The 2009/10 campaign will officially get under way on Thursday night, as Dunfermline will take to the pitch for their first friendly match of the season against Zonale outfit Metropolitan Style.
Gaffer Vanin will not be able to count on a full strength squad, however most of his first teamers shall be available for the fixture, due to take place at the Tre Pini ground, kick-off 8 pm.
With Perugini and Buccianti still enjoying their final bits of holiday in their homelands of Umbria and Tuscany respectively, and Ducco missing out through his FIGC club training duties, the manager's options are limited, although he surely has enough manpower to cope.
On top of the above-mentioned absentees, Vanin may find himself without Crosetti, who could be busy with his working duties, while Merello is likely to make the game, albeit arriving at the ground a bit later than ko time.
All other members of the squad, including Semino, who will be very much part of the team this term as well, should be available.
The squad for the tie should therefore looks as follows:
01 Semino
04 Merello
08 Filippi
10 Frassinelli
(17 Crosetti)
05 Marletta
11 Bovalino
15 Finotti
06 Cantelli
07 Rossi
MANAGER: Vanin
UNAVAILABLE: 12 Perugini, 09 Buccianti, 14 Ducco
