Hello my friends. Here is the Preview of the Serie A Week 21 – Twenty-first Round on Saturday 23 and Sunday 24 January 2016.

This is an exciting round with chances for redemption. For example, Napoli who are the leaders of the Serie A were eliminated in the Coppa Italia by Inter, the former leader. It’s time for Napoli to redeem themselves and keep the leadership by defeating Sampdoria in the away game at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium.

Juventus might become the sole leader of the Serie A in case of Napoli losing the match with Sampdoria and Juventus defeating AS Roma. It will be a total roller coaster !!

A wake up this week is for Hellas Verona who are the only team not winning a single game this season. Hellas are in the rock bottom position. Hellas having only 9 points will face Genoa who are in the 16th position with 22 points.

Inter vs Carpi, a special match for coach Roberto Mancini marking his 200th game in Serie A as Inter coach.

The top scorer up to Round 20: Napoli forward Gonzalo Higuain with 20 goals

Hello my friends. Here is the Preview of the Serie A Week 19 – Nineteenth Round on Saturday 9 and Sunday 10 January 2016.

It’s an exciting round! We might see a change in the leadership. For the moment, Inter is the sole leader with 39 points. There is only point advantage over Fiorentina and Napoli having both 38 points. Inter can keep the leadership if they defeat Sassuolo at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium.

Here is the situation. In case of Inter losing, chances are for Fiorentina and Napoli to take over the leadership. Fiorentina is playing the home game against Lazio while Napoli playing the away game against Frosinone.

Another interesting match is AS Roma vs AC Milan. Tough situation for both teams. Reportedly, Roma and Milan coaches might face sacking in case of a defeat.

Something unthinkable, though, not impossible, it might be that all 3 main contenders Inter, Fiorentina and Napoli losing their respective games. There is one more team gaining momentum and ready for a sprint race towards the Scudetto. Yep. that’s Juventus having 36 points only -3 points below Inter. Juventus is playing the away game against Sampdoria at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium.

The top scorer up to Round 18: Napoli forward Gonzalo Higuain with 16 goals
