Udinese V Juventus Preview »
The odds on the away win appear to be massive on this one, considering Juve have just ended their winless run last weekend, and are back into the to 6 albeit only on goal difference. Udinese on the other hand appear out of sorts and are unable to pull themselves out of the gutter, sinking closer and closer towards the bottom 3 every passing [...]
Roma V Inter Preview »
Big game, is it not? In fact, the most important game in AS Roma's season. A win would bring them as close as one point behind Inter at the top, with a major psychological boost as they once looked like they wouldn't finish in a CL position at all earlier this season. A draw keeps them 4 points behind Inter, but gives AC Milan the chance to regain [...]
Sampdoria V Juventus Preview »
On the H2H it doesn’t look good for Sampdoria, as they are 0-2-3 vs Juve here at Genoa since they were promoted back to Serie A in 2004. However, they did draw in their last 2, so that’s a step in the right direction. Juve may have won by 5-1 at home earlier this season, but back then Sampdoria were struggling big time, and where in the [...]
AC Milan V Napoli Preview »
It’s Milan all the way for me on this one. Not only are they 3-0-0 at home in Serie A, and also 3-0-0 vs Napoli at the San Siro since the year 2K, but because they now have their golden chance to leapfrog their arch-rivals Inter and take the top spot, even if it was for a few days (they play at Parma in the midweek, while Inter get to host [...]
Palermo V Inter Preview »
Inter may have a lot to brag about now that they are past Chelsea and into the last 8 in the Champions League, but they still have a major task to attend to on the domestic scene if they are to build on their European boost to defend their Serie A lead. With AC Milan stepping closer and closer towards the top of the table, Mourinho now has [...]
Bologna V Sampdoria Preview »
The visitors are constantly overpriced of late, and especially on the road. Why should Bologna be favourites here? Both teams are 3-1-1 on form from the last 5 games. Bologna are 1-1-1 at home from their last 3, and yes I do realize they lost to Juve and drew to Milan in them. However, Sampdoria are also 1-1-1 on the road from their last [...]
Fiorentina V AC Milan Preview »
After having lost to Man Utd in the CL last midweek, Milan bounced back through and away win over Bari in Serie A on Sunday. Unfortunately for them Roma also won, so they stayed 3rd on the table, but with this one game in hand. Should they win tonight they regain the 2nd spot, but more importantly will be only 4 points behind their bitter rivals, [...]
Fiorentina V Roma Preview »
In their last 5 visits to Florence, Roma have not been able to register a single win. They lost 2 and drew 3 of them, and the last time they won here was in 2005. Overall they are 3-6-5 away to Fiorentina since 1994. This season Fiorentina are 6-1-3 at home, while Roma are 3-5-3 on the road. Now knowing Fiorentina only won over Lazio in [...]
Bologna V AC Milan Preview »
I can’t stop now, can I? I mean, I backed Milan on the handicap vs Inter and they lost. I once again backed them at home vs Udinese (0-1) and Livorno (1-1). However, I feel it’s about time they won a game already, and precisely against a bottom half team! What’s more is Bologna are unbeaten in 4, and I know Milan just love to mess with [...]
Atalanta V Bari Preview »
I can’t say I like Atalanta this season, but I dislike Bari even more when they are on the road of late. Bari have managed only 1 point from their last 5 travels, and only 2 points from their last 7. They are 1-5-5 overall on their travels, but obviously the best days are long gone. Atalanta at least won over Lazio last time, they played at [...]
Inter V AC Milan Preview »
Roma moved a step forward and are now only 2 points behind AC Milan, but Milan have 2 games over the Giallorossi, including this one. Milan also have a game in hand over Inter with the latter standing 6 points ahead of the local arch-rivals, meaning Milan can actually be tied on points with Mourinho’s side if the win this one and also the game [...]
Lazio V Chievo Preview »
It was obvious last weekend that the Lazio players were exhausted after they had played Palermo in the cup the midweek before. Tired legs meant they were soundly beaten away at Atalanta. Again they played in the cup this midweek and this time around they lost to Fiorentina, but basically they also used their main string, and thus I would be [...]
