The third to last day of the championship will open tomorrow at 12.30 in the name of Roma, champions of Italy, who in the match against Inter – the only team to have beaten them so far in the championship – will have the opportunity to celebrate their second consecutive title together with the own fans. At the same time, Sampdoria-Napoli will be played in Genoa, with the Italian team who, in case of victory, would move to +6 on the last place occupied by Pomigliano. These will be the matches that will kick off the eighth round of the second phase of the championship, which will end on Monday at 6pm with the postponement between Fiorentina and Juventus.
In the first home match after winning the Scudetto, Roma will take the field in a sold out Tre Fontane. The Giallorossi supporters will celebrate the extraordinary progress of the team, which this season – considering the 5 main European championships – is second only to Barcelona in terms of number of victories (24 for the Blaugrana, 21 for the Capitoline). The following day, Fiorentina will also be welcomed by the warmth of their fans, who with Wednesday’s draw in Milan secured third place and have therefore qualified, together with Roma and Juventus, for the next edition of the Champions League, in which they were not participating. from the 2020/21 sports season. The Bianconere are the team against which the Viola have lost the most matches (12 in 16 matches) and will be looking for their thirteenth success to avenge the knockout in the semi-final of the Frecciarossa Italian Cup.
Once all the verdicts of the championship round have been defined, the spotlight on this day will be focused above all on the match scheduled at the ‘Sciorba’ in Genoa, which is fundamental in terms of salvation. Napoli will be looking for a second consecutive success against the Blucerchiate, who have not won in four matches. The goal of the bells is to score points to put a mortgage on the penultimate place – which gives the right to a play-off with the second-placed Serie B team – and avoid risking everything in the direct clash with Pomigliano scheduled for the last day. The Milan-Como derby will be played on Sunday at 3pm: the hosts are aiming for the hundredth victory in the club’s history (considering all competitions), the Larianes are the first against the Rossonere.
