Italian Soccer Serie A

Hello, my friends. Here is the 2019-2020 Serie A Week 15 PREVIEW / Fifteenth Round on Friday 6, Saturday 7, and Sunday 8 December 2019.

👉 Up to Serie A Week 14: There is a three-way race between Inter (37), Juventus (36), and Lazio (30)

⚽️ Serie A Top Scorer up to Week 14:
Lazio forward Ciro Immobile with 17 goals

We have a challenge round.   Last week, Inter took back the first position after defeating SPAL with a 2-1 reaching 37 points.   Juventus, having a step back, lost the first position because they failed to win at the Allianz Stadium ending with a 2-2 draw against a brave Sassuolo.   Juventus remaining with 36 points.

In this round,  Inter can keep the first position if they defeat AS Roma at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium.  Juventus can take back the first position if they defeat Lazio at the Olimpico di Roma Stadium and Inter lose the game against Roma.
