Hello my friends. Here is the Serie A PREVIEW for Week 31 on Saturday 18, Sunday 19, and Monday 20 April 2015. We have an interesting round not for the 1st position because that seems a spot for Juventus with 70 points having a +12 points ahead of Lazio with 58 points.
What we will be following closely is the race towards the 2nd and 3rd position. It’s a big challenge for Lazio to go to the Juventus Stadium to defeat Juventus. Lazio can keep the 2nd position only if they defeat Juventus. Now, here is the other situation. AS Roma with 57 points can take back the 2nd position if Juventus defeat Lazio and Roma defeat Atalanta.
The super match to follow is the MILAN DERBY! Yep, my friends. Inter vs AC Milan. There is only 1 point difference and both teams are battling not only to win the Milan Derby, but also to pursue their last minute sprint towards the Europa League next season. Milan in the 9th position with 42 points and Inter in the 10th position with 41 points. Are you kidding me! Hello… it will be a super duel between Inter forward Mauro Icardi and A CMilan forward Jeremy Menez both top scorer for their respective teams with 16 goals each. Wondering who will score the winner goal… oh my gosh….
Agonizing battle for the last 3 teams in the relegation zone whether they will survive or just accept their reality to go to Serie B….. OUCH.
The top scorer up to Round 30: Juventus forward Carlos Tevez with 17 goals.
