Hello my friends! Here is the Serie A 2014 – 2015 Preview for Week 2 for games from Saturday 13 to Monday 15 September after the international break. We are just starting the season and it is still too early to have one solid candidate for the Scudetto.

One of the awaited debut in this round is to see Spanish forward Fernando Torres with AC Milan. Although we might not see Torres playing all 90 minutes, fans are preparing to see him score and be one of the main pillars in this season. Coach Filippo Inzaghi will have to rearrange his formation because forward Stephan El Shaarawy is injured. Most likely , we will see Keisuke Honda and forward Jeremy Menez plaing with Torres.

The two games on Saturday are Empoli vs AS Roma and Juventus vs Udinese. Pressure for Roma and Juventus to win their respective games to be among the top three teams. Problem is for Juventus who might think twice whether to use forward Carlos Tevez not fully recovered or give him resting time to be ready for the upcoming Champions League game against Malmo. Plus midfielder Arturo Vidal also injured.

Inter – Sassuolo is also a game to watch. Sassuolo still remembering the embarrassing defeat 7-0 last season! It will be tough for Sassuolo to defeat Inter at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium, but inspiration is high seeing forward Zaza living a good moment and even scoring for Italy national team against Norway.

The match Lazio vs Cesena still with the intrique to see Lazio forward Miroslav Klose or Djordjevic leading the attack. We might see the debut of defender Gentiletti too.

Good news is for Napoli vs Chievo. Argentinian forward Gonzalo Higuain recovered and most likely leading the attack along Lorenzo Insigne. in corso. Bad news is for Chievo because Schelotto might be out still injured. Pressure now is for forward Alberto Paloschi and Botta to be decisive with forward Maxi Lopez. On paper, Napoli shoudl win this game, but nothing is taken for granted.
