Milan feels the scent of the Inter Scudetto in Cagliari to try the shot

Lazio, Atalanta, Fiorentina and Rome are playing for the noble places to go to Europe In the queue desperate situation for Venice, Genoa and Sardinians chasing Salernitana

Milano

Above all, there is Gasperini on the road to the AC Milan championship, which nevertheless appears to be downhill. A victory on Sunday afternoon at San Siro would make the climb difficult for Inter who play three hours later at the home of desperate Cagliari, who need points to hope for salvation. The Nerazzurri will have morale high for the success in the Coppa Italia with their long-time rivals Juve, but they will also have the tight and stressful 120 minutes of the Olimpico match in their legs. AC Milan still have the ball in hand because, in the event of a tie on points, they would win the Scudetto due to the outcome of the direct matches.

The other two themes of the championship, at the 180 ‘finals, concern qualification for Europe and salvation. Four teams for three places in the cups: Lazio, which precedes Atalanta by three points, Fiorentina and Roma (who can still qualify by winning the Conference), have the most difficult task in the home of an angry, but also tired and nervous Juve. Fiorentina are committed to Sampdoria, still entangled in the safety zone. Roma receives Venezia, which could take the field on Saturday already relegated. In fact, if Salernitana does not lose in Empoli, it is goodbye to Serie A for the Venetians.

Genoa is also in bad shape in the safety zone, which is -2 from the fourth-last Cagliari, but plays at Maradona in Insigne’s farewell party. Much depends on the result of Cagliari with Inter: if the Sardinians lose Spezia, who play in Udine, and Sampdoria, who face Fiorentina, they are safe. There are two matches without any worries in the standings: from the Emilian derby between Mihajlovic’s Bologna, to the first home match after returning to the bench, and the offensive talents Sassuolo, it is reasonable to expect a show and many goals. As from the match between two healthy teams like Verona and Torino. Both want to redeem the defeat of the last round.

Milan sniffs the scudetto, 11 years after the last tricolor with the young Allegri on the bench. This time it is the gentleman Stefano Pioli who leads the team with acumen, pulse and flexibility. In the last few days, Milan has compacted overcoming many difficulties with fewer mistakes than their rivals, with the decisive contribution of two young players, Tonali and Leao. The last to slip away, after Napoli, is Inzaghi’s Inter who are still hoping for a misstep by their cousins. It will take method and quality to overcome an Atalanta at dusk that tries to cling to the other Europe, after having attended the Champions League for a long time and focuses on the Colombian duo Zapata-Muriel.

Inzaghi collects two titles in his first year at Inter, but it is the most prestigious that remains in the sights. Next to Barella is Perisic the man in better shape, it is a pity that he will almost certainly go away because the request and offer for the renewal do not match.

The challenge of Unipol Domus is heartfelt. Cagliari saved themselves from the abyss of the ko in the 99th minute against Salernitana, but a knockout with the Nerazzurri could open the way to relegation. Especially if Nicola’s Salernitana sprint (eight points in four races) should make a result in Empoli. –
