Serie A stats and tips
Venezia v Napoli, 00:00
It has been a dreadful succession of results for Venezia and their fans, with their last Serie A victory now coming 9 matches ago. Boss Paolo Zanetti has to find a solution, and preferably right away. Will Napoli at Stadio Pierluigi Penzo on Sunday provide some relief?
Roma v Genoa, 00:00
Genoa simply have not been able to find a way past Roma in the Serie A in recent years. The two clubs have clashed on 15 occasions since 2014, and Roma have gone unbeaten in them all. Sunday's game at Stadio Olimpico could be a really difficult one for Alexander Blessin & co.
Bologna v Empoli, 00:00
Empoli followers have become used to action at each end when their side plays in Serie A, with both sides having found the net in each of their last 6 matches. Bologna on Sunday morning should be another goal-fest.
Salernitana v Spezia, 00:00
Sportiva Salernitana's recent Serie A matches have been brimming with goalmouth excitement. All of their last 6 have had over 2.5 goals, and Sunday against Spezia could well be more of the same. Fans of both sides will be hoping that Stefano Colantuono and Thiago Motta send their teams out to go for glory.
Fiorentina v Lazio, 00:00
Each of Fiorentina's last 10 Serie A outings has had two or more goals, suggesting that we could be in for a treat as they go head to head with Lazio on Sunday morning.
Sampdoria v Sassuolo, 00:00
It has been a dreadful succession of results for Sampdoria and their fans, with their last Serie A win now coming 6 matches ago. Boss Marco Giampaolo simply must find a way out, and preferably right away. Will Sassuolo at Luigi Ferraris on Sunday provide some relief?
Inter v Milan, 00:00
Simone Inzaghi and his Inter Milan team have gained a useful knack of getting something from almost every Serie A fixture they play. They're unbeaten in 14 in Serie A now, so Stefano Pioli and his Milan side will need to be on top of their game if they're going to get anything at Giuseppe Meazza on Sunday.
Udinese v Torino, 00:00
Torino's recent matches in Serie A have delivered some excitement, but it has been too long since Ivan Juric's charges treated their fans to a real thriller. There have been under 4.5 goals in every one of their last 13 outings.
Juventus v Verona, 00:00
Verona followers have been spoilt with drama at each end when their team plays in Serie A, with both teams having scored at least one goal in all of their last 5 games. Juventus on Sunday morning may well be another ding-dong battle.
Atalanta v Cagliari, 00:00
Cagliari's recent games in Serie A have delivered some excitement, but it has been too long since Walter Mazzarri's charges treated their fans to a game to really remember. There have been under 4.5 goals in all of their last 20 outings.
