Everyone in front of the television to follow the last twenty minutes of Udinese-Roma. The fates of Salernitana and Napoli hang on the result between the Bianconeri and Giallorossi. If the eleven coached by debutant Fabio Cannavaro were to beat De Rossi’s team, Salernitana would go to play in Frosinone already with the arithmetic certainty of relegation; Furthermore, a victory for the Friulians would not even help the Ciociari’s ranking. Conversely, Napoli is rooting for Udinese, three days before the direct clash with Roma at the “Maradona”. Lukaku and his teammates are six points apart and in fifth place, the Azzurri eighth. If the recovery of the championship does not smile on the Romans, Napoli could gnaw away another three points, and keep alive the flame of the hope of gaining a place in Europe for next season.
On the public order front, the presence of Salernitana fans at the “Benito Stirpe” is still uncertain, after the clashes during the match against Fiorentina. A decision is awaited from the Sports Events Safety Analysis Committee. Colantuono finds Manolas and Coulibaly in doubt with Pirola, while he will have to do without Candreva – disqualified – and then Gyomber, Boateng, Maggiore and Kastanos.
