“Roma” - “Inter”. Perhaps this is the main event of the entire first round - the clash of two of the three main contenders for the scudetto. Recently, the games “Roma” and “Inter” more than once became the decoration of the season on the Apennines. Since 1996, as part of Serie A, the Romans and Milanese have held 20 fights, scoring a total of 70 goals - an average of 3.5 per match. It is not surprising that exotic results such as 3: 3, 3: 2, 4: 1, 5: 4 (the first three options were met twice) are by no means uncommon. For example, in the past championship, the “black and blue” lost in their field 2: 3, although during the match it was 0: 3. The recent confrontation in the match for the Super Bowl was even more daring: Inter managed to win with a score of 4: 3, losing 0: 3! In short, the probability of another bright performance performed by the participants in the Champions League is very high.

“Palermo” - “Catania”. From the point of view of the ranking table and the meeting address, Palermo is a clear favorite. The team of Francesco Gvidolin aims at a quartet of the strongest, “Catania” is the rookie of the division, modestly thinking about maintaining a place in it. However, not everything is so obvious. First of all, the “elephants” (as the players of “Catania” are sometimes called) started very successfully: four points and the only one in the league zero in the missing column. And secondly, the status of the duel is special. Now this is the main Sicilian derby, the rivalry of the teams of the largest cities of the southern island. At the level of Serie A, there have not been such meetings a long time ago - since season 62/63.

Rolando Bianchi. The 23-year-old striker from Regina fined 15 points in two starting rounds scored 4 goals and led the sniper race. It seems that in the career of a young tall (188 cm) striker there has been a breakthrough. He has been in professional football since he was 17 years old, but he had never before played even three goals in a season!

I don’t see the reasons why League of Calcho couldn’t and our fight against Siena “Schedule for Saturday,” - Roma head coach Luciano Spalletti on the principles of compiling the calendar of the championship of Italy.
