Week 29 - 2009 - 2010 ITALY SERIE A PREVIEW Twenty Ninth Round on Saturday, March 20 and Sunday, March 21, 2010 "Post your predictions now"
By Anna Italia Hello, hello, hello!!! What an interesting week! Let me start the preview first by congratulating FC INTERNAZIONALE our only Italian Serie A club remaining the UEFA Champions League after defeating Chelsea from our beloved ex AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti. Having said that, I am a bit late today because I am super exhausted after running in Santa Monica a 4.36 miles and woke up tired. Now, after having my recovery energizer breakfast and doing my after workout stretch, feel energized to finish this Preview and share with you guys my soccer passion for our Italy Serie A. So, here we go....
This week, there might be a TURNING POINT in the Serie A. Yep! So far, up to Week 28 Inter have been the sole leaders, but slowly have been losing the big gap with the second position narrowing down to just a mere ONE POINT difference. Yep! You are reading right. Inter have 59 points and AC Milan have 58 points. It means, if Palermo defeat Inter and AC Milan defeat Napoli, the new leader would be AC MILAN.
Here is my PREVIEW of the Italian Serie A Week 29 - Twenty Ninth Round scheduled on Saturday, March 20 and Sunday, March 21, 2010.

Inter traveling to the Renzo Barbera Stadium with a boost to their morale after defeating Chelsea and qualifying to the quarterfinals of the Champions League. On paper, it looks Inter is the super favorite, but not for Palermo defender Simon Kjaer flatly declaring NOT AFRAID OF INTER.
The battle would be on who can deliver the goals. Top scorer for Inter is forward Diego Milito with 16 goals and top scorer for Palermo is forward Fabrizio Miccoli with 10 goals. Comparing goalkeepers, sure, we see a David against Goliath if thinking Inter is coming with top shot Brazil National football team goalkeeper Julio Cesar against Palermo goalkeeper Salvatore Sirigu slowly gaining his first team position.
On the coach level Delio Rossi vs Mourinho, there have been only 2 times and Mourinho taking the victory. Rossi that time coaching Lazio and losing both games against Inter in the 2008-2009 season both with without Lazio scoring a single goal ( 0-3 and 0- 2)
Stats are definitely in favor of Mourinho over Palermo. Question would be on whether 'the heart and willpower' from Palermo will be enough to stop Inter. With Mourinho, there has been 3 games, 2 victories for Inter and 1 draw plus Inter scoring 9 goals.
Here is the disciplinary situation. One suspended player for PALERMO, Carrozzieri. Four players with one yellow card: Blasi, Bresciano, Goian, Balzaretti. One suspended player for INTER, Muntari. One player with one yellow card: Eto'o.
Here is the probable formation for PALERMO (4-3-1-2) Sirigu, Cassani, Kjaer, Bovo, Balzaretti, Migliaccio, Liverani, Nocerino, Pastore, Miccoli, Cavani
Here is the probable formation for INTER (4-3-1-2) Julio Cesar, Maicon, Lucio, Samuel, Santon, Zanetti, Stankovic, Cambiasso, Sneijder, Milito, Eto'o
Here are the stats of the last 3 HOME games from PALERMO: 3 wins
| 7-3-10 | Serie A | Palermo - Livorno | W 1-0 |
| 21-2-10 | Serie A | Palermo - Lazio | W 3-1 |
| 6-2-10 | Serie A | Palermo - Parma | W 2-1 |

Well, I am still in party mood too and yesterday, here, in the Italian Soccer Serie A, most were rooting for Inter and pushing that bandwagon to win the match... and guess what? INTER WON. It was fun sharing with our Inter fans Mark and Vito Intermobiliare. So, today, things go back to normal and each Italian football fan joining their respective teams to root for their favorite teams.
Here is the thing guys, Palermo, surely respecting Inter for their well deserved victory against Chelsea, but also true that they are not afraid. Palermo defender Simon Kjaer declaring on a press conference that "they are not afraid of Inter,"
Now, here is one of the opinions getting my full attention.... which one? Oh well, let me tell you.... One of the greatest Inter legends Striker Alessandro Altobelli thinks that Palermo can win this Saturday. Say what? hum? really? Yep! I was reading the news about Altobelli's declarations and was surprised. Normally, I would have expected Altobelli to say the contrary. Altobelli played for Inter from 1977 to 1988 making a total of 317 appearances and scoring 128 goals.
According to Altobelli, is not unthinkable that Palermo might defeat Inter. "Catania beat them, Juventus beat them.. Sampdoria beat them, and Palermo can beat them too," said Altobelli, who is in Palermo following a course from the Technical Center of Coverciano.
On Tuesday, March 16, 2010, Altobelli talked at the "Tenente Onorato" di Boccadifalco about Inter. Sure, first thing yesterday was for Inter to defeat Chelsea and as Altobelli said it was like the "match of the season." So far, let's say Altobelli got one point because Inter did play a super match, especially Wesley Sneijder and, of course, striker Samuel Eto'o. Ah wait.. hold your horses... there is one last thing... Altobelli also clarifying that Inter also could win the match if their top players have a good match like Maicon, Sneijder, Milito, Eto'o, Stankovic and MARIO BALOTELLI! Well, let's see if Mourinho will call up Balotelli.... "Balotelli is the extra player, the one who could change the match in any moment," said Altobelli.
So, do you think Altobelli will get the second part right too.... the unthinkable.... the unexplainable... Palermo defeating Inter at the Barbera?

It's party time all over! Yep! Inter taking an important step by breaking a barrier and passing to the Champions League Quarterfinals after defeating Chelsea (0-1) and the aggregate (1-3).
Results: UEFA Champions League Round of 16 Second Leg: CHELSEA 0 - 1 INTER Goal by Samuel Eto'o
Here are the declarations from FC Inter coach José Mourinho told Sky Sport Italia of his delight at seeing Inter go through to the last eight of the Champions League. "I am the happiest coach in the world in this moment," he said. "It's a great moment for the team, a great moment for Inter, for all the players who year after year had problems overcoming this barrier of the last sixteen, and now they have done it. This is a qualification to the quarter-finals earned not with luck, but with merit, thanks to the team, which was perfect, and all the players who did a perfect job from start to finish."
When asked if Inter's two-legged victory over Chelsea marks a turning point for the Milan outfit, Mourinho responded: "We are talking about a game which sees Inter reach the quarter-finals, a stage at which they hadn't arrived for a few years. We twice beat Chelsea, who are a great team. We deserve this quarter-final."
On his team's performance at Stamford Bridge, the Portuguese added: "I said I knew this stadium, the atmosphere, the players and for this reason I always thought it would be impossible to draw 0-0 by playing defensively, so we played offensively. We were faster and more dynamic, and Eto'o's goal is the example of what we wanted to do and what we did do after going close in the first half."
Mourinho admitted: "I celebrated like never before, really like never before. It is a fantastic victory for my team, which is Inter, just like my fans are those of Inter. This victory is confirmation that Stamford Bridge is my home and that I always win here, with Chelsea or without Chelsea, like this evening."
Wow, wow, wow, guys, I must say that I am happily to know that finally Ancelotti and Mourinho shared a glass of wine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cheers!!!!!
Mourinho also mentioned his relationship with Carlo Ancelotti: "With Carlo there have sometimes been a few words too many, but there's no relation between the respect and the few exchanges of words that there have been between us. He gave me some Italian wine today and I brought him the wine of my country. He invited me to his office after the game, there's a good relationship. I hope he wins the Premier League, I don't want to remain the only coach who has won it with Chelsea."

Italian Serie A Week 32 Cagliari - AC Milan |
AC MILAN _ NAPOLI (before the match)
San Siro Stadium
Serie A Standing: AC Milan 2nd position, 58 points
Napoli 8th position 41 points
At the end of the press conference on Tuesday, March 16, 2010, Napoli coach Walter Mazzarri spoke about the group's morale following Saturday's defeat against Fiorentina:
Napoli 1 - 3 Fiorentina
Following the match against Fiorentina I saw some players who were sad for the defeat. What I will tell my players, as training resumes today, is that on Sunday's match against Milan we shall have to use that athletic anger."Walter Mazzarri then commented on the group: "We have created a soul to this group. I had never coached such a united group."
"The next games against Milan and Juve are very important, but Napoli must still obtain 10 more points."
Walter Mazzarri again on the possible recovery of the injured players: "We're recovering important players and we're in form. When a player returns from an injury I must still evaluate if his state of form is the same that he had before the injury." On the formation choices: "In choosing the formation to field, I always evaluate the conditions of the individual players, the team we face and I field the best possible formation."
I agree with Mazzarri that Napoli could be in a higher position. "We are missing 6 - 7 points. Points objectively deserved. i am happy about the maturity from our fans. People have understood the spirit of this tea. I emphasize that this is one of the most united group that I have ever trained," said Mazzarri.
