Serie A tickets

The status quo in the leadership might change in this round. Inter is in the first position  with 38 points.  The bad news that must be archived is the elimination of Inter out of the UEFA Champions League after losing the game against Barcelona.  Inter will have to put all their energies in the Serie A battling for the Scudetto.  Inter will play the away game against Fiorentina at the Artemio Franchi Stadium  on Sunday 15 December.

Juventus with 36 points in the second position might take the first position only if Inter lose the game against Fiorentina and Juventus defeat Udinese at the Allianz  Stadium.  Juventus with an added boost after qualifying to the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 and looking forward for the Supercoppa Italiana against Lazio in Saudi Arabia on 22 December.

We have the debut of new Napoli Coach Gennaro Gattuso replacing Coach Carlo Ancelottti on 11 December.  Gattuso will make his debut in the home game Napoli vs Parma on Saturday 14 December.   Napoli will have to increase their speed to climb the Serie A Standing being in the 7th position with 21 points compared to Inter with 38 points in the first position.   The good news is that Napoli qualified to the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 while Inter is out of the Champions League.
