  Here  is the Italian Serie A Week 28 - Twenty-eighth Round on Friday March 4, Saturday  March 5 and Sunday March 6, 2011.  Status quo  from AC Milan as sole leader won't change this week either  Milan win, draw, or lose. Hum? what?  Yep, AC Milan have a 5 point advantage over Inter holding the second position with 53 points.  Here is the thing. Second and third position  might change as there is only 1 point difference between Inter and Napoli holding the third position with 52 points. .  Yet, the area  with the "don't blink that I  might lose" are those from the 4th to the 6th position.

Here is what might happen this week. AC Milan can "put an iron wall to protect the so far granted Scudetto," only if they defeat Juventus,  Genoa defeat Inter and Brescia defeat Napoli.. What am I talking about?  Oh well, let me breathe because the whole race is getting so fast that I am literally tired, lacking breath to see  these teams increasing their speed for the coveted Scudetto.   If the previous scenario happens AC Milan will have an 11 point difference with the second place... SO?  Oh well, get this one, there are only 10 more games and that my friends leave 30 available points....  Now, a big splash might occur if Milan lose while Inter and Napoli win their respective games because there will be only 2 points difference.......

This week  we have three teams scoring the most  AC Milan, Inter, and Udinese with 49 goals each.  As for goal difference  AC Milan having +29, Inter +20, and Udinese +19.   The team with a goal diet is AS Bari  scoring only 15 goals and still in the 20th position.  The team conceding the most goals is Lecce with 48 goals against.  Challenge for Juventus coneding at home 21 goals compared to the 10 conceded from Milan at home.

Lecce - AS Roma (before the match)
Via del Mare Stadium
Serie A Standing: Lecce 17th position, 28 points
                                  AS Roma  6th position, 43 points

  Matchofficials  Referee: Damato Assistants Viazzi and Liberti  Fourth Official De Marco. 
 
A must win for both teams for different reasons.  Lecce  cannot lose this home game  or risk falling in the relegation area.  AS Roma cannot lose this game before they might lose the spot for the Europa League, thought their target is to reach the Champions League Zone --earning  being among the top 4 teams.

Current stats in favor of Lecce.  In the last 13 HOME games, Lecce with 5 win, 4 draw, and 4 lost.  In the last 14 AWAY games AS Roma with 4 win, 3 draw, and 7 lost.

On Week 9, Roma defeating Lecce at the Olimpico  di Roma Stadium on October 30, 2010. AS Roma 2 - 0 Lecce.  with a goal by defender Nicolas Buridsso in the 62nd minute  and forward Mirko Vucinic.

Talking about the joy of celebrating a goal and look at the expression from AS Roam defender Nicolas Burdisso celebrating his goal, the first one of  the season  opening the score a against Lecce. AS Roma 2 - 0 Lecce.


 
Rumors surrounding Roma transfer market including "Jose Mourinho as possible next coach"   The one rumor giving me headache is the possible transfer from Roma "iconic" defender Philippe Mexes to AC Milan.  I can't picture Mexes out of Roma....

Challenge is for Roma coach Vincenzo Montella to  "readjust Roma's DNA" as to not be afraid of keeping a victory instead of ending losing or draw a match.

Top scorer for Lecce is forward Davide Di Michele with 5 goals.  Top scorer for AS Roma is forward Vincenzo Montella with 10 goals.  As for effective assists Lecce  takes te lead with Gianni Munari having 6 assists  while Totti  has 5.

As for a defense.. Hum... both lacking  accuracy.  Lecce is the team conceding most goals with 48 while scoring only 30 having a negative goal difference of -18.  Roma are not doing that well either  scoring 41 goals while conceding 38 goals having a positive goal difference of +3.

Roma completed their training  at the Fulvio Bernardini and deaprting to Lecce. Forward Adriano following individual training.

Here is the probable formation for LECCE (4-3-2-1): Rosati, Donati, Gustavo, Fabiano, Brivio, Munari, Giacomazzi, Vives, Olivera, Mesbah, Jeda.


Here is the probable formation from AS ROMA (4-3-1-2): Doni, Cassetti, Mexes, Juan, Riise, Pizarro, Daniele De Rossi, Taddei, Perrotta, Vucinic, Boriello.

Anna Italia's Prediction:  AS ROMA




Juventus - AC Milan (before the match)
Olimico di Torino Stadium
Serie A Standing: Juventus 7th position, 41 points
                                  AC Milan  1st position, 58 points

It's the match  to consolidate AC Milan power and Juventus relaunch for a spot in the Europa League.  Risking the most here is not AC Milan, but Juventus.  What? Am I out of my mind?  Nope.  Here is the thing, AC Milan win, draw, or lose will continue as sole leader as they are 5 points ahead of Inter.  There are a17 points difference between Juventus and AC Milan.  Problem is for Juventus in case of defeat.  What problem???!!!  Yep, in case of Juve losing and the combination of Palermo and Cagliari winning their respective games  will put Juventus down to the 9th position!!!!!!!!

  Willit be revenge for Milan?  Hello, hello, hello.. Juventus defeating AC Milan on Week 9 in San Siro on October 30, 2010 AC Milan 1 - 2 Juventus.  Scoring form Milan was Ibrahimovic while for Juventus Fabio Quagliarella and Alessandro Piero with the winning goal.

Good new is that Milan afrer the "scary moment" yesterday when Ibrahimovic suffered a minor back  problem during training at the gym.  Reports today is that he trained with the group on Thursday.  Milan cannot count with Andrea Pirlo, Massimo Ambrosini and Filippo Inzaghi all injured.   For Juventus it is Alberto Aquilani to be out for injury.

Serie A Week 29
Facing his ex team is AC Milan defender Nicola Legrottaglie who transferred this January.  Legrottaglie played for Juventus from 2003 to  2011 making 154 appearances and scoring 9 goals.   Legrottaglie  debuts with Milan on February 1, 2011 against Lazio.  Legrottaglie on RAI said that it is not the time for him to think  about Juventus, but  focus on his new team AC Milan.

Defender Gianluca Zambrotta also an ex Juventus making 297 appearances while scoring 10 gaols.   We might say  the most relevant EX... is forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic being vital for Juventus in winning the Sucdetti --which by the way taken away for Calciopoli and giving them to Inter.  Ibraimovich making 97 appearances  while scoring 26 goals.   Goalkeeper Christian Abbiati also  an EX playing on loan for the Old Lady from 2005 t  2006. Zambrotta on RAI, said "Milan should continue to do well, giving the maximum

Juventus, ironically, having two of the est defenders form the Italian National team Giorgio Chiellini and Bonucci, have also a worst defense this season.  Juventus conceding a total of 34 goals which 21 at home!!!! Hello.... anybody home? If we compare AC Milan defense stats.. a big gap!  Milan conceding a total of 20 goals 10 at home and 10 away.

Oh my gosh.. among the ex AC Milan and now with Juventus are goalkeeper Marco Storari and forward Alessandro Matri.   Matri is a product of AC Milan youth team being a key player for Franco Baresi in the 2002-2003 season.  Matri played for the  first team only once... Interestingly, it was against Juventus!!!

Here is the disciplinary situation. One suspended player for Juventus: Simone Pepe. Three players with one yellow card Fabio Grosso, Alessandro Matri, and Milos Krasic.  No suspended players for Milan while only 2 players with 1 yellow card:  Andrea Pirlo and Daniele Bonera.

                                  Brescia  19th position, 24 points

Match Officials  Referee:  Mazzoleni    Assistants: Cariolato and Manganelli   Fourth Official:  Brighi

Napoli already losing at the San Paolo and down from the 2nd position to the third postilion as Inter  are now 1 point ahead with 53 points.  Napoli and Inter are the two anti-Milan in the race for the Scudetto.  So, for  Napoli the best scenario will be to win this game and  hope for Juventsu to draw or defeat AC Milan and for Genoa to draw or defeat Inter.

Current  stats iin favor of Napoli.    In the lasat 13 HOME games with 9 wins, 4 draws, and 7 lost.  In the last 14 AWAY games Brescia with just 1 win, 3 draw, and 9 lost.

Top scorer for Napoli is forward Edinson Cavani with 20 goals just 1 point  behind Anotnio DI Natale having 21 goals.

16 victories Napoli
11 draw
3 victories Brescia
46 goals  Napoli
26 goals Brescia
 

Last time Brescia defeated Napoli at the San Paolo was on January 18, 1998 with a Napoli 0 - 3 Brescia... hello, hello,hello...  can Brescia cause an upset? 

Here is the disciplinary situation.  One suspended player for Napoli:  forward Ezequiel Lavezzi and 6 players with one yellow card: Salvatore Aronica, Yebda, Santacroce, Dossena, Edinson Cavani, and Christian Maggio.  Lucky Brescai because Lavezzi was the one scoring the only goal of the match on the Serie A Week 9 Brescia 0 - 1 Naoli  on October  31, 2010.

No suspended players for Brescia, though 6 players with one yellow card:  Zoboli, Jonathan Zebina, Lanzafame, Andrea Caracciolo, Accardi and Arcari.

It's the  match with  the top scorer of the Serie A forward Antonio Di Natale with 21 goals against  Bari having  one of the worst defense!  Di Natale scoring 3 goals against Palermo last week.  Are we expecting a goleada???? 

AS Bari will play their 1,000 game in Serie A with a total of 256 win 284 draw and almost double lost  with 459.   Will they celebrate  causing an upset at the Friuli by defeating Udinese?  On paper, this looks like an Impossible Mission.
