After the midweek round it’s time to focus on the 16th gameweek of Serie A, which will live its highlight on Saturday, December 4 with matches involving the 4 teams currently protagonists of the Scudetto fight. At 20:45 Napoli, with injuries, will try to fend off the assault of the “flying” Atalanta Gasperini, after 4 consecutive victories. At 6pm, Roma, after the defeat at Bologna and heavily altered by injuries and disqualifications, will try to interrupt the positive moment of Inter, in a challenge full of ideas: on the one hand, Josè Mourinho finds the team with which he made the historic Triplete, On the other hand, Edin Dzeko will be at the Olimpico for the first time as an opponent of the team he has played in the last 6 seasons. At the opening, Milan, “rilanciato” after the success against the Genoa of the beloved ex Shevchenko, will face Salernitana in the most classic of the head-tail.
On Sunday, December 5 they will be staged 2 derbies: at 12:30 that of the Apennines between Bologna and Fiorentina, match valid for a European ranking, at 3 pm the Venetian one between Venice and Verona. At 6 pm Lazio, still in search of a balance, will try to return to a success that is missing for 3 days. The Spezia-Sassuolo Sunday program and the 20:45 match between a Juventus eager to maintain contact with the top position and Genoa still looking for the first goal of Shevchenko management. The day will have its conclusion on Monday 6 with Empoli-Udinese, a potentially decisive match for Gotti’s stay on the Friulian bench, and Cagliari-Torino, with Granata trying to interrupt their series of 4 consecutive away defeats.
