Juventus Vs Pescara
For just the second time this season, Juve were played off the park as they succumbed to a 2-0 away defeat against an impressive Bayern Munich, after all but wrapping up their second consecutive title by beating Inter at the Meazza on Saturday afternoon. Pescara were the only team among the bottom four not a earn a single point in Gameweek 30 and are now 6 points from safety. No doubt how this game will end.
Prediction 2-0

Bologna Vs Torino
Bologna did well to leave Udine with an important point last Saturday while il Toro lost in an enticing encounter which featured eight goals against Napoli, in which ex-front man Dzemaili scored aĀ scintillatingĀ hat-trick. Even though just a pointĀ separatesĀ these two teams in the Serie A standings, I reckon the home side will have enough grab all three points.
Prediction 2-1
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Fiorentina VsĀ Milan
Fiorentina were pegged back by an impressive Cagliari display in Sardinia last weekend and will kick themselves since they are now six points behind the Rossoneri who sit in third place. La Viola must win this game if they are to stand any chance of playing Champions League football next season, however I predict Milan will have just enough to hold out for a draw.
Prediction 2-2
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Catania VsĀ Cagliari
Catania have been one of theĀ surpriseĀ packages of the season and deservedly sit in 8th place. Cagliari put on an impressive display last gamesweek to see off an in form Fiorentina. This will be a close encounter however I predict the home side will win this.
Prediction 1-0

Udinese VsĀ Chievo
Udinese will not be pleased at being held at home by Bologna and sit in 9th place in the standings – Not bad considering the number of players sold during summer. Chievo have also had a pretty good season and sit a healthy 9 points above the drop zone. I predict a close home win.Ā
Prediction 2-1

Sampdoria Vs Palermo
La Samp wereĀ defeatedĀ at home in their mid-week fixture which was postponed a couple of weeks ago while they were also held over the weekend on their travels to Atalanta. Palermo put in an inspired display to see off a resurgent Roma side and are now just three points from safety.
Ā Prediction 1-1
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Siena VsĀ Parma
Siena were superb to hold out for a vital drawĀ againstĀ fellow relegation candidates Genoa and will really need to give it their all when Parma visit this Sunday, if they are to secure their Serie A status next season. Parma have been solid this season, particularly at home. Their form has slumped lately so expect an open match and I am pipping Siena to win this.Ā
Prediction 2-1
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Inter VsĀ Atalanta
Inter bounced back in a tough match away to Sampdoria on Wednesday night and have goalkeeper Handanovic who kept a clean sheet and ensured that all the points went to the team from Milan. Atalanta were held at homeĀ againstĀ Sampdoria in Gameweek 30 and I reckon a home win is on the cards.Ā
Prediction 2-0
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Napoli Vs Genoa
Napoli showed real grit to down a fighting Torino side in an incredible score line of 5 goals to 3, the winning goals coming via a late Cavani brace. Genoa will kick themselves for being held at home by Siena and remain just a point above the bottom three. I expect a comfortable home win.
Prediction 3-1
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Roma Vs Lazio
The most exciting fixture of this weekend’s footie takes place on Monday night in the Roman derby which is always full of hard tackles and stunning goals. With just three points dividing these two teams you can be sure that both teams will go all out to secure the bragging rights. Lazio have a tough Europa League match in Turkey to contend with on Thursday night which just might give Roma the edge.
Prediction 2-1
