Hello my friends. How are you doing? The Serie A is back after the international break.  Here is the 2018-2019 Serie A Week 4 PREVIEW for the Fourth Round on Saturday 15, Sunday 16, and Monday 17 September 2018.

We are ready for an interesting round.   So far, Juventus is the only team winning their 3 games having full 9 points.  The expectation is high in this round because the fans want o see Cristiano Ronaldo scoring his first goal for Juventus.

Incredible so, Sassuolo is in the second position with 7points leaving behind the big teams such as AS Roma and Napoli.   It will be a time to regroup for AC Milan, Fiorentina and Inter to climb the Serie A Standing while for SPAL will be a total victory if they remain among the top 5 positions.

Challenge is for Parma, Bologna, Frosinone, and Chievo Verona to win their first game this season.  All four having only 1 point.   Bologna fans wanting to see Coach Filippo Inzaghi making a difference to see Bologna out of the relegation zone.
