NAPOLI – There are also few doubts for Antonio Conte who seems to have found his position in the 3-4-2-1. Milinkovic-Savic in goal, a three-man line made up of Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani and Juan Jesus. Politano confirmed full range on the right, on the left it will be Spinazzola’s turn. Midfield made up of Lobotka and McTominay. Behind Hojlund the imagination of Neres and Elmas. The Macedonian seems to have a strong advantage over Lang for a starter’s shirt.
BOLOGNA – After the Super Cup final lost to Napoli, it’s the championship again for Italian Bologna. The coach still has some doubts for the match against Sassuolo: they should be there in front of Ravaglia Holm, ahead of ZorteaVitik (ahead of De Silvestri), Lucumi and one between Miranda and Lykogiannis the sinisterwith the first favorite. In the median the Moro-Pobega couple. Dallinga should be up front, with a few more doubts behind him: Orsolini he seems to be the only one certain of a shirt on the right. Left Rowe could start from 1′, with Dominguez on the bench. While behind the tip runoff between Odgaard and Fabbian.
SASSUOLO – Grosso’s Sassuolo still has to do without Berardi, but Grosso should have recovered Pinamonti who should regain his place at the center of the tridentthe attacker ahead of Cheddira. At his side Volpato and Laurienté lead on Fadera. In defense, in front of Muric, Walukiewicz, idez, Muharemovic and Doig, go ahead to Candé. In midfield Thorsvedt, Matic and Koné.
ATALANTA – Palladino wants to try to dispel the Inter taboo, a team against which Atalanta has not won since 2018. To do so he relies on his 3-4-2-1: in front of Carnesecchi, Djimisiti (advantage over Scalvini)Hien and Kolasinac should make up the defensive line. If there is no doubt on the right, given the absence of Bellanova, it will be Zappacosta’s turn, on the left it is the runoff between Zalewski and Bernasconi is alive, with the former Inter favorite. In midfield it will be De Roon and Ederson’s turn. In front of Scamacca, supported by De Ketelaere and Pasalic, currently ahead of Sulemana.
INTER – Chivu wants to start strong in the league after the disappointing Super Cup. For the match against Atalanta this evening in Bergamo, the Inter coach has no major doubts. Sommer returns to goal, with space in the three-man defense for Bisseck (with a strong advantage over de Vrij), Akanji and Bastoni. Perhaps the biggest doubt was on the right, but Luis Henrique should be confirmedwith Diouf as the weapon during the ongoing competition. On the left Dimarco, while in the middle of the field Barella, Calhanoglu and Mkhitaryan who overcame the competition of Zielinski and Sucic. No doubts about Lautaro, Thuram favored over Esposito.
MILAN – In Allegri’s classic 3-5-2 that will challenge Verona at 12.30 in front of Maignan, there will be room for Tomori, De Winter and Pavlovic in defence, as almost announced by the coach in the press conference. On the flanks there is no doubt: Saelemaekers on the right and Bartesaghi on the left. In the middle of the field Loftus-Cheek seems to have a clear advantage over Fofana who should start from the bench. With the Englishman there will be Modric and Rabiot. Absent Leao in front, Allegri will still trust Nkunku who will team up with Pulisic.
VERONA – Same form as Milan for Zanetti’s Verona who will show up at San Siro without the suspended Frese and Belghali. Nunez, Nelsson and Bella-Kotchap should be in front of Montipò. In the median Serdar, Al Musrati and Bernede. On the right it will be Oyegoke’s turn, while on the left, open ballot between Bradaric and Valentiniwith the former a slight favourite. Giovane will be in the forward position, while the other position will be Mosquera seems ahead of Orban.
FIORENTINA – Another bad defeat for Fiorentina, yesterday against Parma. Now Vanoli’s position is back in the balance, as he underlines La Gazzetta dello Sport: “After the defeat, no drastic decisions were taken, beyond the continuation of the press silence (which would not have been interrupted even in the event of victory at the Tardini). Until Sunday’s match at the Franchi against Cremonese Paolo Vanoli remains the coach of Fiorentina. Then we’ll see. E it will depend on Fabio Paraticiwho will soon become the director of the technical area. Even though the responsibilities of the players are underlined at Viola Park, Vanoli’s position is not solid. Paratici will immediately find himself at a crossroads.”
ROMA – Roma is preparing for tomorrow’s match against Genoa. These are the last ones according to La Gazzetta dello Sport: “Dovbyk’s return and yet another Bailey failure. Gasperini has fully recovered the Ukrainian, who trained with the group again yesterday. However, the coach is unlikely to count on him from the start for the match against Genoa. In place of the injured Pellegrini Baldanzi remains on pole in a light attack completed by Dybala and Soulé. Out Bailey who, despite the positive outcome of the tests, continues to carry out differentiated work after the muscular problem suffered against Juventus. On defense Ziolkwoski favorite su Rensch”.
GENOA – De Rossi’s Genoa will face Roma tomorrow. These are the updates according to 19th century: “Ostigard he is ready to return from the 1st minute. Marcandalli and Otoa are fighting for their places. And if it’s the Dane’s turn it doesn’t mean that Leo will be the central defender. Thorsby and Cuenca recovered. It will be Sommariva’s turn again in goal.”
PEDERSEN – During yesterday’s match against Cagliari, Torino defender Pedersen asked for a substitution due to a problem. These are the words of coach Baroni on the player’s injury: “He had suffered a contusion, then he got back on his feet and pushed hard. He asked me for a substitution, tomorrow we will evaluate it”.
PISA – After the defeat suffered last night against Juventus, the Pisa coach Gilardino took stock of the absences: “We had many defections, like Meister, even Buffon and Piccinini gritted their teeth. Cuadrado and Stengs who we never had, this is the reality. We were a little short, but it’s not an alibi. We put in some good performances against Milan, with Fiorentina, with Parma, with Sassuolo. If we have this ranking this says the reality. On trust? I speak daily with both Giovanni Corrado and Davide Vaira, I knew right away the difficulties and the type of championship we were going to have. We have to have confidence.
CAGLIARI – After yesterday’s victory against Torino, the Cagliari coach Pisacane spoke about the formation choices, in particular theexclusion of Esposito: “It was a technical choice also based on the management of the last few weeks. He wasn’t 100%, but it’s a technical choice. Idrissi is making a good contribution, but in football we shouldn’t sit on what we did but think about tomorrow.” And also of future of the gym: “He is a heritage of Italian football. He has enormous physical power, he is skilled with both feet, he does the two phases with ease… What immediately struck me about him was his personality with the ball at his feet, you never know where he can go and in my opinion this is an ability that few have. He gets to the back and crosses with the right or the left. Since he is a boy who listens, however, this time I will also say that in the last two matches I have not been 100% satisfied with his work in the two phases. Afraid that they will take him away? I’m not afraid, the fear is the same that allowed me to put him on the field and launch him. We think that the right path for him is the one we presented to him in July. I hope he can stay.”
PARMA – The Parma coach Cuesta spoke after yesterday’s victory against Fiorentina about the initial lineup choices: “Circati was very important. There was the possibility of having Troilo and Trabucchi play, while Delprato wouldn’t have made it from the start, but we felt that he was the right choice.”
