Without a moment's respite, Serie A completes its third round in eight days, preparing the three days of European cups.

The scenarios change quickly but for now Inter seems to be the only one able to annoy the leading duo Milan-Napoli, while Rome, Lazio and Atalanta have detached Juventus and Fiorentina, who come out with broken bones from the midweek round.

It is the Juve crisis, at -13 from the top, to hold the ground and to arouse strong perplexity. Allegri's path limps even in comparison with Sarri and Pirlo. The 'short-nosed' victories are already a memory and now, in addition to the game, the points are also missing. The challenge in Verona that acts as a watershed becomes fundamental: either it rises again or it sinks. Even if the key matches are others, Atalanta-Lazio and above all Roma-Milan, it is at the Bentegodi that the match for the possible turning point is played. Allegri focuses on Dybala, Chiesa, Cuadrado, recovers Szczesny and loses De Sciglio, and could also give the young Kaio Jorge a chance. Tudor, after letting some owners rest in Udine, re-presents Simeone, author of a hat-trick with Lazio. It will not be easy for Juve to pass this test that could mark the season.

AC Milan leaders and unbeaten in 25 matches are expected for a hell of a week: Roma, Porto to beat for the last feeble Champions hope, and the derby. But Pioli, thanks to Maldini's high patronage, manages a group that continues to grow with insight, lightness and results. Tonali, Diaz, Leao, Saelaemeker, Calabria are offering a superlative performance, Kessie and Hernandez have been recovered, the defense holds up well. This time Ibra should start, with Giroud on the bench. A spectacular match is expected because Roma are metabolizing Mourinho's hunger for victories and have one of the most in-form players of the tournament, Pellegrini. Since the coach has taken out half the bench, the problem may be the tiredness of the group that always plays, waiting for Spinazzola and Smalling. He lost a littleof bite Abraham while he surprised the debut of 18 / year old Felix, who made the Cagliari race turn with his speed.

The challenge between Zapata and Immobile and between Ilicic and Pedro inflames Atalanta-Lazio, almost a play-off to contend with Roma for fourth place. Gasperini will have to study countermeasures for Milinkovis-Savic, who has already scored five goals with the Nerazzurri and will have to make up for various absences, even if he recovers the defenders. Lazio suffers from the small ones and exalts themselves with the big ones, so a balanced and spectacular match is expected. The round suits the ambitions of Inter and Napoli, who face insidious but less complicated opponents. The Nerazzurri, returned to victory in Empoli with the decisive support of the bench and a reassured Sanchez, host Gotti's Udinese, who came from four draws and found a valid striker like Beto.

The Neapolitans, one draw and nine wins, are favorites in the derby at Salernitana that Colantuono seems to have awakened and presents a champion like Ribery who is still able to leave his mark. Spalletti returns to the bench to enjoy Insigne's goals, Osimhen's overwhelming power, Fabian Ruiz's quality. There are many possibilities that he will resume the summit alone. After the feat in Turin, Sassuolo wants to continue to rise given the quality of the squad and the talent of Dionisi: they will face Andreazzoli's Empoli who lost to Inter also for the reckless red deserved by Ricci.

Fiorentina has lost to the measure with Lazio confirming its individuality and is favored in the comparison with the unsafe Spezia, like the bench of Thiago Motta. Ballardini is not too strong either, who is unable to grow a Genoa that has a good staff and must achieve a result against Venezia, which has ruined an interesting ranking with the slip with Salernitana. Torino recriminates for the knockout with Milan but Juric is giving solidity to the team that only has to recover the goals and the temper of Belotti: a three-point opportunity tomorrow at home with Sampdoria that is falling into the relegation zone. Hard times for Mazzarri: Cagliari gave clear signs of recovery but the last place saddens theenvironment and the coach hopes to reverse the trend in the home of Bologna which has quality in attack but not in defense as confirmed by the clear defeat against Napoli.
