It's the day of the Maceratese-Tolentino derby. Arm wrestling between highly motivated teams

MACERATAAnother test for Maceratese: today's challenge at 15pm with Tolentino is a Derby, the crimsons are experiencing an excellent moment and are animated by a spirit of revenge after the defeat in the first leg. There is no lack of motivation in the red and white house: above all the need to defend the first place considering that K Sport Montecchio Gallo is one point from the top and, at least on paper, the Pesaro team is expected to play the home match against Atletico Mariner which presents less risk than the one against Maceratese. Only this morning will it be decided whether the coach Matteo Possanzini will be able to count on the defender Lucero, replaced for a contracture seven days ago, the feeling is that it is unlikely he will be risked, his place could be taken by Grillo as happened at home of Sangiustese, but there is no shortage of alternatives. For the rest the coach will be able to count on all the elements, except Albanesi, for his return we will talk about it at least in a couple of weeks, then there will be no Nasic, he underwent thesurgery performed by Professor Cerulli in Perugia and will begin rehabilitation this week. In the first leg, Maceratese returned from Tolentino with 3 points, but many things have changed since then and above all it is a different Tolentino. Passarini's team has recovered some players, has strengthened the squad and the young players have matured. The same can be said for Maceratese who has changed some players, added others and its young players have matured. The recent additions of Gomez and Marras have given good results, while we have to wait for the Portuguese Ribeiro to be supported by better physical condition. In the derby, Maceratese will need to be careful in defense because the opponents up front are fearsome, at the same time greater nastiness in front of the net will be essential. 401 tickets were sold in Tolentino, today in Macerata the box office will be open, only for local fans, from 13.30 pm in via Fratelli Palmieri, near Idea 88.
