Fiorentina - Juventus

Big game for Zac and his boys. In fact, I'd say the game isn't far off a must win. It won't be easy though. The Viola have been in decent form recently with 2 wins, a loss and a draw. To be fair, the loss against Bayern was ridiculous. They were indeed robbed. It doesn't help matters for Juve that the Stadio Artemio Franchi is a very, very hard place to go and get a result. The fans in Florence will be well up for it. Juve are off the back of a shocking display against Palermo, in which they lost 2-0. If they don't win this game tomorrow they could well find themselves in 7th place by the end of the weekend. I'll be backing the Viola. 2-1.

AS Roma - Milan

Game of the weekend for me. Both teams are the only realistic challengers to Inter now and a win for either team could prove to be crucial. Pato is out, so Beckham comes in to replace him and Milan will be desperately needing a performance from him. If the 'Dinho of recent times shows up then I can see Milan just edging it, because he's been superb recently and he's Milan's most creative player, now with no Pato to help him. He needs to perform. It should be a classic encounter, and I'll go for 3-1 Milan win.

I'll probably watch Roma v Milan, very important game for both sides. If Milan win, they are pretty much sure to finish in the top 2 with Roma 3rd. Should be a good game.

Big game for us this weekend, especially after Juventus getting 3 points and taking the 4th and final Champions League position. At home against Livorno, we are the definite favorites, though we sometimes struggle against the teams we should beat.

Milan should have beaten Roma. They completely dominated the game after the first 10 minutes and wasted loads of chances, a lot like the first leg against United. The fitness of Pato is going to be key for them beating United cos they seem to be a lot less clinical without him. Bonera looks to be resurecting his career to some extent which is nice to finally see.

Brilliant win for Juve, i think the early goal was vital to settle their nerves and the return of Iaquinta was a big boost. Fiorentina though just don't seem to be clicking at the moment. Might be that it's time for a change like it was at Roma and then Cesare can take over from Lippi.

It was a big win and they took the chances that Fiorentina offered.

Milan were really disappointing in terms of putting chances away. Pirlo and Flamini absolutely bossed the midfield and the amount of chances they created for Borrielo and Huntelaar was vast. But, they couldn't put them away, so Milan got what they deserved, a draw. Roma were really poor, they're very lucky to come away with anything.

Only saw the first 30 minutes of the Roma Milan match and Roma were terrible. Milan were just getting started as i went out so i thought they would have went onto win by a goal or two, unfortunately not.

Thriling start to the Bologna-Napoli game, 2.1 after 13 minutes.

We are dominating Livorno, but a few missed sitters and 2 incredible saves by the Livorno keeper have kept the score 0-0.
