FRIDAY:
AS ROMA vs PISA
AS Roma sit 6th on the table with 54 points from 31 matches and are still gunning for European qualification. Their recent run has been inconsistent. They come into this clash after a heavy 5-2 defeat away to Inter but had previously secured a 1-0 home success over Lecce.
Roma have found the net 42 times this season while allowing 28 goals at the other end, reflecting a side that has quality going forward but can be exposed defensively at times.
Pisa are bottom of the standings with just 18 points from 31 games and have endured a difficult campaign. They head into this fixture after a narrow 1-0 defeat to Torino and were heavily beaten 5-0 by Como before that.
Pisa have managed only 23 goals this season while leaking 55, underlining their struggles in both attacking areas and defensive organisation.
Head-to-Head
The reverse fixture earlier this season saw Roma secure a 1-0 away victory. Historically, Roma have had the upper hand, although Pisa did claim a 2-0 win in Rome the last time they met there.

AS Roma 1.33
Draw 5.25
Pisa 10.00
Verdict
Roma possess far greater quality and should dominate proceedings against a Pisa side that has struggled throughout the season. Given the visitors lack of attacking threat, Roma are expected to control the game comfortably and secure a routine victory.

SATURDAY:
ATALANTA vs JUVENTUS
Atalanta occupy 7th position with 53 points from 31 matches and remain in form having gone unbeaten in their last five trips to the pitch. They recorded a convincing 3-0 away win over Lecce in their latest outing after edging Verona 1-0 at home.
Atalanta have scored 44 goals this season while conceding 27, showing a well-balanced side with a reliable defensive base.
Juventus sit 5th on the table with 57 points and continue to push for a top four finish. They arrive after a solid 2-0 home victory over Genoa, having previously drawn 1-1 with Sassuolo. Before that they secured a 1-0 away win against Udinese and recorded a dominant 4-0 victory over Pisa.
Juventus have accumulated 54 goals this season while giving up 29, highlighting a strong attacking output with a fairly steady defence.
Head-to-Head
The reverse fixture earlier this season ended in a 1-1 draw. Atalanta did secure a convincing 3-0 victory in the Coppa Italia earlier this year, while previous meetings between the sides have often been closely contested.

Atalanta 3.15
Draw 3.40
Juventus 2.35
Verdict
Both sides are evenly matched and in decent form, which suggests a competitive encounter. With recent meetings often producing tight contests, this clash could once again be difficult to separate, and I am picking the draw.
BET: Draw at 3.40
SUNDAY:
COMO vs INTER
Como sit 4th on the standings with 58 points from 31 matches and have been one of the surprise packages this season. They come into this fixture after a goalless draw away to Udinese and had previously produced an emphatic 5-0 victory over Pisa.
Como have fired 53 goals this season while allowing just 22 through their backline, underlining their impressive balance.
Inter Milan continue their top of the table run with 72 points and have been the standout side in Serie A this campaign. They arrive after a commanding 5-2 victory over Roma and had previously drawn 1-1 with Fiorentina and Atalanta.
Inter have produced 71 goals this season while conceding only 26, indicating their overall dominance as well as their depth.
Head-to-Head
The reverse fixture earlier this season saw Inter claim a comfortable 4-0 victory, while the most recent cup encounter ended in a goalless draw on Como soil.

Como 3.15
Draw 3.50
Inter 2.30
Verdict
Como have been excellent this season but Inter remain the strongest side in the league and possess greater experience in high-pressure encounters. This should be a competitive clash, although Inter’s quality could prove decisive and I am betting on them taking 3 points on the road.
BET: Inter to Win at 2.30
