Hello my friends, It's countdown ! Guys, only 5 more games and the season is over!!
The Serie A table is changing and last week the difference between Inter and AC Milan was 10 points, this week with the defeat of Inter the difference reduce to only 7 points. Yep! You are reading right....

Here is the thing guys. The Serie A table might change again if Lazio beat Inter and Milan beating Catania resulting in shortening the distance to 4 points! OUCH. Hey, don't panic Inter fans because this is only "a possible scenario." Yet, if Catania beat AC Milan and Juventus beat Lecce, hello, hello, hello... the second position will go back to Juventus!!!!! You see... this week so much going and you don't want to miss the whole action. I won't!
Having said that, here is my PREVIEW of the Italian Serie A Week 34 - Thirty Fourth Round on Saturday, May 2 and Sunday, May 3, 2009. I am providing the stats from the last 4 home and away games for each match.

BOLOGNA - REGGINA
San Siro Stadium
2008 - 2009 Serie A Standing - Bologna 18th position, 29 points
- Reggina 20th position, 24 points
Guys, Bologna and Reggina must be singing together the Beatles song "HELP!"
It's a match for salvation. The draw will not help any and most of all Reggina could practically wave good bye to the Serie A and prepare their trip to the Serie B if losing. Motivation for Reggina is high as they are coming to Bologna after beating Atalanta in their home stadium to the surprise of eerybody. Though, also Bologna beating Genoa... so the atmosphere for a "winner takes all" is expected.
Five points difference between Bologna - Reggina and the struggle gets tougher with only 5 more games. Even if Reggina win they will still be in the last position.
Reggina will hope for Juventus to beat Lecce and Fiorentina to beat Torino to have some kind of hope to save themselves.... though it seems almost an impossible mission. Reggina will need to play their best game against Bologna and win their remaining games hoping Torino, Lecce and Bologna lose their pending matches....
A ray of hope for Reggina knowing that Bologna will not count with key players like Francesco Antonioli, Davide Marchini, Davide Bombardini, Miguel Angel Britos and Luigi Lavecchia. Yet, the one really to feaar top scorer of the Serie A forward Marco Di Vaio is ready to battle along Sergio Volpi returning from suspension.
Last 4 HOME games for BOLOGNA: 2 wins and 2 lost
Last AWAY games for REGGINA: 1 win, 1 draw, and 2 lost
Anna Italia Prediction: BOLOGNA

FC INTER MILAN - LAZIO
Giuseppe Meazza Stadium
2008 - 2009 Serie A Standing - FC Inter Milan 1st position, 74 points
- Lazio 9th position, 47 points
Guys, last week I started the preview of Inter with a loud "HEAR YE, HEAR YE, HEAR YE" because they could have almost collected the Scudetto if beating Napoli. Yet, surprise, surprise..... it was Napoli beating Inter with their verdugo forward Marcelo Zalayeta. Today, I start again with the "HEAR YE, HEAR YE, HEAR YE" because if Lazio beat Inter oh my gosh... AC Milan will need to beat Catania and the 7 points difference reduce to only 4 points!!!!!! Simply put, Inter might start their penitence until the end of the season to save the Scudetto or AC Milan can take it away!!!!

Here is the thing guys. Inter despite their leadership is not looking too secure. True, one slip is not the end of the world, but oh gosh why happening after 9 victories!!!!! That is a question which Inter coach Jose Mourinho might be asking to his players.
Disdadvantage for Inter not counting with forward Mario Balotelli and the ex Lazio midfielder Dejan Stankovic for suspension. Making matters worst for Inter Douglas Maicon and Hernan Crespo out for injury too. The pressure will be as usual for forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic to save Inter.
It's the chance for Lazio goalkeeper Fernando Muslera to crown himself as the real first goalkeeper if blocking the super missiles from Inter forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Wow... imagine if the underdog Muslera walk away from the Meazza with a clean sheet!!!! My, My, My... it won't be easy because you have also Inter goalkeeper Julio Cesar ready to stop Lazio duo Tommaso Rocchi and Mauro Zarate.
It's a deja vu for Inter fans.... what seemed secure now seems shaking.... the Scudetto might be slipping.. Pressure is not for Lazio, but for Inter to win this game. Lazio -on paper the loser - will go to the Meazza to challenge Inter and even a draw will be like a victory for the biancocelesti.
Disadvantage for Lazio the absence for injury of forward Goran Pandev who would have loved to play this match. Other players missing for injury will be ex Inter midfielder Ousmane Dabo, Diakhite and Christian Manfredini.
Stats are in favor of Inter winning their last 3 home games and drawing only 1 against Palermo. For Lazio, the scenario is not that negative considering that in their last 4 away games they achieved 2 wins, and 2 lost
Last 4 HOME games for FC INTER MILAN: 3 wins, 1 draw
Last 4 AWAY games for LAZIO: 2 wins, 2 lost
Anna Italia Prediction: DRAW

PALERMO - CAGLIARI
Renzo Barbera Stadium
2008 - 2009 Serie A Standing - Palermo 7th position, 49 points
- Cagliari 8th position, 49 points
Call the firemen!!!!!!! Guys, this will be FIRE!!!!!! A bloody battle! Palermo and Cagliari having the same 49 points and battling for a spot in the UEFA Cup... wow... the match to play with all their heart and be focused during the 90 minutes without BLINKING!!!!
The pressure is for Palermo to deliver the victory in front of their fans at the Renzo Barbera Stadium. Here is the thing guys both have 1 suspended players. Palermo defender Cesare Bovo is suspended and so is Cagliari Lopez. 7 Palermo players with one yellow card: Kjaer, Liverani. For Cagliari with one yellow card are Cossu, Robert Acquafresca, Bianco and Lazari.
On paper, everything is in favor of Palermo. The motivation of the rosanero is high considering they have won 3 wins and 1 lost comparing to Cagliari record of their last 4 away games with only 1 win, 2 draws, and 1 lost.
Latest news from Palermo training with the objective to win and hope for Chievo to beat Roma and Sampdoria to beat Genoa to shorten the distance. The bets are for Palermo. Guys, there have been 12 games between Palermo and Cagliari, Palermo winning 7, 12 draws, and 3 victories for Cagliari.
Last 4 HOME games for PALERMO : 3 wins, and 1 lost

Angelo Massimino Stadium
2008 - 2009 Serie A Standing - Catania 14th position, 40 points
- AC Milan 2nd position, 67 points
One mission for AC Milan in this away match is clear: TO WIN !!!!!
Here is the crucial moment for the race of the Scudetto. Milan must win against Catania to have slim hope to grab the Scudetto hoping for Lazio to beat Inter or draw to shorten the distance to 4 points.
Big disadavantage for Catania guys. The Sporting Judge has suspended Catania coach Walter Zenga for one round, in relation to the episodes occurred at the end of the match of the Serie A Week 33 Lecce - Catania on Sunday, April 26, 2009.
AC Milan goes to the Massimino with their morale high knowing they are playing better in every match. Advantage for AC Milan is the inspired moment from their forwards KAKA and Super Filippo Inzaghi. The disadvantage will be not having midfielder Mathieu Flamini because he is suspended for one match.
Milan's objective is to celebrate a victory and guys the Sleepy Prince Andrea Pirlo seems back again in shape. Massimo Ambrosini pulling the midfield too and the eternal Inzaghi giving hope not only to his teammates but to every Milan fan.
Wow, guys, just imagine that the next games of Milan is precisely against FC Juventus,then against AS Roma and ending the season against Fiorentina ! Not easy games guys!!!
Guys, Pato is still injured but Milan can handle the battle with Clarence Seedorf, Kaka, Inzaghi, and Shevchenko... though the fresh speed from Pato is an added plus.
Catania has one suspended player Fabio Sciacca.

Wow, guys, God forbid Juventus lose this match because it will be definitely be the cherry on top of the ice cream for the sacking of Coach Claudio Ranieri for the next season.
Juventus losing points lately and slipping to the 3rd position, 2 points away from AC Milan. Juventus fans are not happy at all with the team and contesting not only Ranieri but also the possible transfer of ex Juventus Fabio Cannavaro from Real Madrid.
Yet, Lecce also must be praying for a miracle and going to the Olimpico with the mission to beat Juventus. Though the statistics are totally against Lecce losing their last 4 away games!!!!! OUCH!!!!

It's time for Juventus captain and flag Alessandro Del Piero to take the team by the hand again to win the remaining games.

AS ROMA - CHIEVO VERONA
Olimpico di Roma Stadium
2008 - 2009 Serie A Standing - AS Roma 6th position, 52 points
- Chievo Verona 16th position, 34 points points
No more time for the Roman gladiators for mistakes. Roma cannot lose this match in the Olimpico... Wow, guys, if Palermo beat Cagliari or the other way around Cagliari beating Palermo and Chievo beating Roma... a whole crash!!!! If this happens, guys, Roma might even go down to the 7th position!!!! ouch!!!! Not only the dream to be in the UEFA Champions League next year is over for Roma but they risk not even making it to the UEFA CUP if losing this match! U N B E L I E V A B L E!!!!!!!!
Get this one guys... in goal difference Roma has "0" Yep! You are reading right guys. Here is the thing, Roma has scored 52 goals but conceding also 52... ouch! If we see the chances for holding a possible in the UEFA Cup among Palermo, Roma, and Cagliari, surprise, surprise... Cagliari take the lead because their goal difference is 7 while for Palermo only 2.

Last 4 HOME games from AS ROMA: 3 wins, and 1 lost

Anna Italia Prediction: AS ROMA
GENOA - SAMPDORIA
Luigi Ferraris Stadium
2008 - 2009 Serie A Standing - Genoa 5th position, 57 points
- Sampdoria 13th position, 41 points
Hip hip hurrah! Guys, it is the time for the Derby della Lanterna... wow... the right timing!
One problem for Genoa to block their dream to be in the Champions League is Sampdoria duo Antonio Cassano - Giampaolo Pazzini who might beat them. Sampdoria's stats are in favor considering they have only lost 2 games at the Luigi Ferraris plus the motivated Pazzini is so crazy to to blast Genoa forward.. Point is that lately instead of Diego Milito "the Prince of Genoa," returning barely from injury, the one really rocking is Sampdoria forward Pazzini.
Wow guys... indirectly even Roma got to do in this match! Why? Hellooooo If Genoa and Fiorentina lose their respective games and Roma beat Chievo... then the points difference between all three fighting for a the Champions League spot will be tight with Fiorentina remaining with 58 points, Genoa 57 and Roma jumping to 55 points... 4 more games to play and mathematically speaking "Roma are dreaming."
Last 4 HOME games for GENOA: 2 wins, 2 lost
Last 4 AWAY games for SAMPDORIA: 2 wins, and 2 lost...
