FIORENTINA - JUVENTUS (before the match)
Artemio Franchi Stadium
Serie A Standing: Fiorentina 10th position, 35 points
Juventus 5th position, 41 points
A special match for the ex Fiorentina midfielder Felipe Melo! Wow, can you believe Fiorentina is down in the 10th position? Mamma mia.. Usually, Fiorentina is among the top 6 teams and if they want to be in the Champions League next season, they better hurry up and start winning to climb to the top 4 teams.
Next week Juventus playing the Europa League match against Fulham and then in the Serie A against Napoli. Victory is important for both because next week is the Champions League and the Europa league. Fiorentina playing against Bayern Munich on March 9 while Juventus playing against Fulham on March 11.
UEFA Champions League Quarter Finals Second Leg March 9, 2010: Fiorentina - Bayern Munich tickets
Fiorentina have won in Florence 7 matches, drew 1 and lost 5. The goals scored at home are similar in number to the ones scored away (17 against 15), while they conceded less goals at home (12 against 19).
Prandelli’s team started its run with 3 consecutive victories: 1-0 against Palermo, 1-0 against Cagliari and 2-0 against Sampdoria. The first mishaps began with the 0-0 against Lazio.
Good news with Juventus who lately seem to be sending players to the emergency room instead of playing. Yep, Juventus suffering this season from too many injuries. Goalkeeper Gigi Buffon and forward Amauri out for about a month. The smiling on coach Alberto Zaccheroni is recovering forward Vincenzo Iaquinta.
Testing the waters... Juve aware about their "falling from grace," did a testing match on Wednesday with a mix of the first team and youth players. Vincenzo Iaquinta and Christian Poulsen who on their first real test following their injuries, played for more then an hour!
Here is the disciplinary situation. One suspended player for FIORENTINA, Mutu. Five players with one yellow card: Pasqual, Marchionni, Gobbi, Vargas, Felipe. No suspended players for JUVENTUS. Four players with one yellow card: Legrottaglie, Zebina, Camoranesi, Diego.
Two key players for Fiorentina forward Alberto Gilardino and midfielder Juan Manuel "El LOCO" Vargas.

Here is the probable formation for FIORENTINA (4-2-3-1) Frey, Comotto, Felipe, Kroldrup, Pasqual, Donadel, Montolivo, Marchionni, Jovetic, Vargas, Gilardino
Here is the probable formation for JUVENTUS (4-3-1-2): Manninger, Zebina, Cannavaro, Chiellini, De Ceglie, Sissoko, Felipe Melo, Marchisio, Diego, Trezeguet, Del Piero

Olympic Stadium
Serie A Standing: AS Roma 3rd position, 51 points
AC Milan 2nd position, 54 points
Here is the PARTITISSIMA of the week! A direct encounter towards the second position. Yep! Either Milan keep the second position and following closely Inter or Roma snatching the second position from Milan. There are only 3 points difference between Roma and Milan. A victory of the Roman gladiators will bring them to 54 points... Yet... Milan would keep the second position because goal difference right now is 20 for Milan and 16 for Roma... unless Roma defeat Milan with more than 4 goals to zero....
Stats are in favor of AC MILAN. Out of the 147 total match between AS Roma - AC Milan in the championship, 68 victories Milan, 36 victories AS Roma, and 43 draws. Now, stats from the games played at the Olimpico, AC Milan still with a small advantage, 74 games in the Olimpico, 26 victories AC Milan, 22 victories AS Roma, and 26 draws.
Good news are from both teams. Roma recovering forward Luca Toni while Milan seeing the awakening from Ronaldinho and Klaas Jan Huntelaar, who by the way even scored a goal yesterday with the Netherlands National Football team. Not sure yet on whether forward Alexandre Pato will be ready for this match for injury.
Naturally, Roma and Milan would be hoping for Genoa to defeat Inter to shorten the gap. Mamma mia... if Milan defeats Roma and Genoa defeats Inter, the difference will be only 1 point.
Top scorer for AS Roma this season so far is Francesco Totti with 10 goals compared to AC Milan top scorer this season with Pato scoring 12 goals, both most likely will miss this match for injuries.
Here is the thing guys, Milan with the difficulty, pressure not only to defeat Roma, but also not suffering more injuries. Next week Milan playing the Champions League game at Old Trafford against Manchester United and they have to win or be eliminated because Man U defeated the rossoneri in San Siro... so pressure is tougher for not losing in both front.
Roma squad might be a bit tired with all Roma players returning from duty with their national teams. A total of 7 players have been called up. Brazil is the national team with most called-up players by Roma: Baptista, Doni and Juan, but also Daniele De Rossi (Italy), Mirko Vucinic (Montenegro), Nicolas Burdisso (Argentina) and John Arne Risse (Norway).
From Milan, in a sense the squad won't suffer much tiredness. Ronaldinho ignored by Dunga. Plus Inzaghi showing great form. Returning from Duty are David Beckham (England), Andrea Pirlo, Marco Borriello, and Gennaro Gattuso (Italy), Klaas Jan Huntelaar (Netherlands), Thiago Silva (Brazil).
Here is the disciplinary situation. No suspended player for AS ROMA. Three players with one yellow card: Mexes, Perrotta, De Rossi. One suspended players for AC MILAN, Gattuso. Two players with one yellow card: Seedorf, Thiago Silva.
Milan playing a training match on Wednesday against Berretti team with the news of Filippo Inzaghi scoring 4 goals.. so, you bet, coach Leonardo will be considering this for the starting formation as turnover are needed. Milan defeating Berretti 6-0.
Roma forward Francesco Totti and midfielder David Pizarro continues to work separately to recover from injuries.
Will the Huntelaar - Dinho be the lethal weapon to conquer Roma?

Here is the probable formation for AS ROMA (4-2-3-1) Julio Sergio, Motta, Burdisso, Juan, Riise, Brighi, De Rossi, Taddei, Perrotta, Vucinic, Toni.
Here is the probable formation for AC MILAN (4-3-3): Abbiati, Bonera, Nesta, Thiago Silva, Jankulovski, Flamini, Pirlo, Ambrosini, Mancini, Borriello, Ronaldinho
Here are the stats of the last 3 HOME games from AS ROMA: 2 win, 1 lost

Anna Italia Prediction: AC MILAN
AS BARI - CHIEVO VERONA (before the match)
San Nicola Stadium
Serie A Standing: Bari 13th position, 32 points
Chievo 11th position, 35 points
It is time for Bari to wake up and smell the coffee after four consecutive defeats. Bari started the season well and then maybe enjoying too much the good moment and losing 12 points in the last 4 games..... Only 3 points difference with Chievo. Chances for Bari to win are positive as there will be a weakened Chievo with four suspended players. Making matters worst for Chievo is the suspension from coach Domenico Di Carlo baneed for his blasphemy confirmed by TV evidence.

Chievo Verona coach Domenico Di Carlo
Here is the disciplinary situation. No suspended player for BARI. Three players with one yellow card: Donati, Bonucci, Koman. Four suspended players for CHIEVO, Marcolini, Yepes, Luciano, Di Carlo. Three players with one yellow card: Mantovani, Sorrentino, Frey.

If you are a Lazio fan, start praying now because Lazio risk falling in the relegation area if losing this game. Lazio not able to take giant steps to climb the table. Sampdoria Lazio is only 3 points away from Livorno holding the 18th position with 23 points. Worst scenario for Lazio will be losing against Sampdoria and Livorno defeating Palermo.
Sampdoria would hope Napoli and Juventus - both having 41 points -- to lose their respective games and jump to the 5th position. Stats not positive for Lazio who out of 14 away games have won only 1... yep.. this was on February 14 defeating Parma 2 -0 at the Ennio Tardini Stadium. However, Sampdoria not losing at home since 21 home games including 11 victories and 10 draws. So, on paper, Sampdoria is the favorite. Sampdoria at home this season conceding only 7 goals.
Special match for Sampdoria Pietro Accardi and Daniele Gastaldello who would be playing their 100th match with Sampdoria! Lazio midfielder Cristian Ledesma would be playing his 200th game in Serie A.
Good news for Lazio recovering goalkeepr Fernando Muslera after a match suspension. Muslera having a good match with Uruguay National football team defeating Switzerland. Muslera played all 90 minutes.
Here is the disciplinary situation. One suspended player for SAMPDORIA, Ziegler. Two players with one yellow card: A. Cassano, Rossi. No suspended players for LAZIO. Five players with one yellow card: Biava, Foggia, Firmani, Baronio, Rocchi
Here is the probable formation for SAMPDORIA (4-2-3-1) Storari, Zauri, Gastaldello, Lucchini, Accardi, Semioli, Palombo, Poli, Mannini, Pazzini, Pozzi
Here is the probable formation for LAZIO (4-3-1-2): Muslera, Lichtsteiner, Stendardo, Radu, Kolarov, Brocchi, Ledesma, Matuzalem, Mauri, Rocchi, Floccari

Palermo is rocking big time living a big dream after defeating Juventus last week in the Olimpico. Palermo is on the 4th position precisely within the Champions League area and you bet they will try to keep this spot and even challenging the third position.
Here is the thing, Palermo must defeat Livorno, period. However, it is not easy because --- although -- on paper Palermo is the favorite to win at home. There is the psychological factor from Livorno looking for a victory and survive relegation. Livorno in the 18th position, just need a victory to start climbing the ladder.
Stats are in favor of Palermo. This will be the 22nd match between Palermo vs Livorno, 13 victories for Palermo, 3 victories for Livorno, 5 draws. Palermo scoring 35 goals, Livorno scoring 17. In total, Palermo and Livorno in the global encounters include 42 games: 19 victories Palermo, 10 victories Livorno, 13 draw. Closer stats with general goals, 63 goals scored from Palermo and 50 goals scored from Livorno.
Top scorer this season for Palermo is Captain Fabrizio Miccoli with 9 goals against Livorno captain Lucarelli with 5 goals this season.
Best scenario for Livorno will be for Sampdoria to defeat Lazio. Interesting that Palermo and Livorno are among the teams protesting the most against wrongful referee decisions. Palermo positive performance includes goalkeeper Salvatore Sirigu, slowly but surely getting the first goalkeeper role and rewarded by being called up for the Italian National team in the match against Cameroon.
Palermo most likely will trust their attack with Pastore, Miccoli and Cavani. It will be a real surprise if Palermo lose this match at home.
Here is the disciplinary situation. Two suspended players for PALERMO, Carrozzieri (until 5/4/2011), Cassani. Four players with one yellow card: Blasi, Bresciano, Nocerino, Balzaretti. Two suspended players for LIVORNO, Moro, Rivas. Four players with one yellow card: Miglionico, Raimondi, Marchini, Diniz.
Here is the probable formation for PALERMO (4-3-1-2) Sirigu, Blasi, Kjaer, Bovo, Balzaretti, Migliaccio, Liverani, Nocerino, Pastore, Miccoli, Cavani
Here is the probable formation for LIVORNO (3-5-2): Rubinho, Perticone, Knezevic, Galante, Raimondi, Pulzetti, Mozart, Filippini, Bergvold, Bellucci, Lucarelli
A key "TRIO" forwards Abel Hernandez, Fabrizio Miccoli and midfielder Jvier Pastore.

ATALANTA - UDINESE
Azzurri d'Italia Stadium
Serie A Standing: Atalanta 19th position, 21 points
Udinese 16th position, 27 points
It is now or never for Atalanta to start winning or prepare for relegation. Simply put, Atalanta is in 19th position and defeats against Chievo and AC Milan a major setback for salvation. Udinese won't be easy to defeat. It will take Atalanta all their concentration and executing the match game letter by letter.
Udinese arrives with the top scorer of the Serie A "forward Antonio Di Natale" scoring 19 goals so far. A disadvantage the injuries from Gaetano D'Agostino and Alexis Sanchez.
Here is the disciplinary situation. One suspended player for ATALANTA, Padoin. Four players with one yellow card: Garics, Pellegrino, Capelli, Talamonti. No suspended players for UDINESE. Six players with one yellow card: Pepe, Domizzi, Basta, D'Agostino, Handanovic, Pasquale.

Talking about running to win... here is a case with Napoli definitely not wanting to fall below the 6th position but continue climbing the ladder. Napoli and Juventus have 41 points each. Ideally, Napoli would hope for Livorno to defeat Palermo to battle for the 4th position. Is this possible? yes... goal in case of Palermo losing and Napoli defeating Bologna, means that Napoli and Palermo will have 44 points each, plus goal difference for Palermo is 6 and for Napoli a goal difference of 5.

CAGLIARI - CATANIA
Sant'Elia stadium
Serie A Standing: Cagliari 8th position, 38 points
Catania 15th position, 27 points
The "CC" match... Cagliari following closely Napoli and Juventus. Only a victory can put Cagliari back in the race for a spot in the Europa League which is among the top 6 teams. Cagliari losing last week against Chievo and the previous week losing against Udinese. The Cinderella needs to recover the missing shoe to have the solid formation again.
Catania coach Sinisa Mihajlovic trying to survive and a defeat will be a disaster.

Cagliari coach Massimiliano Allegri will have to pull up a super winning strategy to defeat Bologna.
Here is the disciplinary situation. One suspended player for CAGLIARI, Naingollan. Three players with one yellow card: Astori, Lopez, Lazzari. One suspended player for CATANIA, Alvarez. Five players with one yellow card: Delvecchio , Andujar, Martinez, Mascara, Silvestri.

INTER- GENOA
Giuseppe Meazza Stadium
Serie A Standing: Inter 1st position, 58 points
Genoa 9th position, 38 points
