Italian Soccer Serie A
Hello, my friends. Here is the 2019-2020 Serie A Week 2 Preview / Second Round on Friday 30, Saturday 31 August, and Sunday 1 September 2019.
We are now ready for the second round and time for adjustment or the status quo might remai the same. The big clash is Juventus vs Napoli. Juventus, the reigning champion, will receive Napoli (second place last season) at the Allianz Stadium. The big clash seeing the big ex-Napoli Coach Maurizio Sarri and ex-player “Gonzalo Higuain.” Sarri will not be on the bench still recovering and taking his place is Assistant Coach. Juventus and Napoli won their respective games last week and have 3 points each.
Two derbies in this round… Derby dell’Emilia between Bologna vs SPAL. The second derby is famous “Derby della Capitale” Lazio vs AS Roma at the Olimpico. Roma will have to boost their performance because another defeat will just be putting the sign for “warning.” Roma ended with a 3-3 draw against Genoa and will have to challenge themselves to claim the bragging rights to rule Rome or Lazio will continue their winning road.
