Milan - Juventus (21:45, ONE 2)
The Rossoneri are at the top of the table despite many shortcomings and now they are facing a very tough test in the form of Juventus, who are still missing Albero Murata.
Milan have not lost in Serie A since July and show as much character as they did 0-2 against Benevento in the last round, a win achieved despite being left with ten players early in the season.
Sandro Tonali, who absorbed the red, will of course be absent, but Theo Hernandez will return from suspension, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Ismail Benasser are still injured.
Andrea Pirlo of course will meet his mythological ex.
Although his Juventus beat Udinese 1: 4, it was not a particularly impressive performance.
Juan Cuadrado and Adrian Ravio return from suspensions while Alex Sandro is positive for Corona and will be out.
Pirlo said ahead of the game: "Milan have a great spirit and it helps them win of course. They come after great results, they fight and run together. In the Italian league you never give up, for a second. I want to see Yuva convinced by her strength that she plays as we plan" .
This is the first time the two teams have met with AC Milan over Juventus in the table since November 2015, so Paulo Dybala scored the only goal of the game and set up Juventus 0-1.

Sampdoria - Inter (16:00, ONE 2)
The Narazzi want to secure a ninth win to put pressure on city rivals AC Milan ahead of the last game against Juventus, but will likely have to do so without the injured Romulo Lukaku.
Who should return to the squad is Alexis Sanchez, who will fill the place of the dominant Belgian striker.
Sampdoria have won twice and lost three times in their last five league games and the one who will surely be most excited of all will be its winger Antonio Canderva, who will meet the ex.
Inter have beaten Samp in the last six league meetings between the two.

Crotone - Rome (16:00)
The Giallorossi are in very good shape and count four wins in the last five rounds, which improved their balance to 30 points in third place.
Roma will try to get another win against the weak Crotone, who closes the table with just nine points and snatched 6: 2 from Inter in the last round.

Naples - Specia (19:00, ONE 2)
Gennaro Gattuso's team will fight for a place in the Champions League this season and is currently in fourth place with 28 points and a game in hand.
If Napoli really want to get one of the top four places, they need to beat at home a team like Spezia, which is in 18th place and below the red line with only 11 points and comes after three consecutive losses and when it took out just one point from the last 18.
Other games:
Cagliari - Benevento (ONE, 13:30)
Atlanta - Parma (16:00)
Bologna - Udinese (16:00)
Lazio - Fiorentina (16:00)
