After the midweek European competitions, Serie A is back in action. The first match on Saturday will see Como face Atalanta. Gasperini’s team, fresh off a 5-0 win against Sturm Graz in the Champions League, hasn’t secured a victory in their last four league games. The Nerazzurri have drawn against Lazio, Udinese, and Juventus before their defeat in the head-to-head clash with Napoli. The Azzurri now lead by 7 points, with Inter trailing by 4 points but with a game in hand. Atalanta is under pressure to win to keep their Scudetto hopes alive.
The weekend’s big match is Napoli-Juventus: the Bianconeri will play at the Maradona against their former coach Antonio Conte. Thiago Motta’s side returned to winning ways against Milan but currently trails the Azzurri by a significant 13 points.
Saturday’s Serie A action concludes with Empoli hosting Bologna at the Castellani. The two sides are experiencing contrasting moments: the Tuscans have lost four of their last five matches, while Bologna is in contention for a European spot and recently celebrated their first Champions League victory, despite their elimination.
