Forced to win. Inter and Napoli present themselves for this Saturday in the championship with the knowledge that they cannot fail, penalty find themselves in trouble for their respective goals. Spalletti's team runs the risk of being sucked into the pile fighting for the Champions League, thus endangering something that was taken for granted, Ancelotti's one of definitively putting down any hope of annoying Juve. In short, the Nerazzurri's away matches in Parma (20.30 pm) and the Azzurri's in Florence (18 pm) promise fire and flames, especially as they will be facing two tough and highly motivated opponents. However, it is undoubtedly Inter who plays the most: the 2019 crisis (defeats against Turin and Bologna and elimination from the Italian Cup) undermined the certainties of an environment that seemed solid and which instead, as often happened in the past, it turned out to be very fragile. The main suspect, as expected, is the coach, at risk not only for next season (it is practically certain, in fact, that someone else will be in his place) but also for this: the hypothesis of Cambiasso-ferryman been around for days and in case of defeat al Tardini, beyond the denials of Marottacould come true.
"In games like thislonged we must put our hearts and pride into la jersey, assuming our responsibilities - the thought of Spalletti. – Our careers are at stake but not it's all to be thrown away. When there are no results speeches go to zero, just count quello. I expect to go to Parma to achieve results, but also adding content that has led us to be better at the work done in these 18 months”. The call to a sense of responsibility is a clear message to the players, especially to the players highly criticized Icardi and Nainggolan: the first hasn't scored in six games but is always very active on social media, the second is the scarce ghost of the champion admired in Rome. Therefore, the coach asks them for a breakthrough, as can be seen from 4-2-3-1 of tonight he will see Handanovic in goal, Cedric, Skriniar, De Free e Asamoah in defence, Gagliardini e Brozovic a midfield, joao mario, Nainggolan e Perisic on the frontline, Icardi in attack.
D'Aversa will confirm en bloc the Parma capable of stopping Juve, therefore 4-3-3 with Sepe between the poles, iacoponi, Bruno Alves, Bastoni and Gagliolo in the back department, Kucka, Scozzarella e Barilla in the median, Gervinho, English and Biabiany in the offensive trident. To further complicate Inter's moment are the results of the Romans, both victorious in their respective advances. After Lazio's success on Thursday (1-0 against Empoli), Roma's victory at Chievo arrived yesterday. which means that the Giallorossi and Biancocelesti are momentarily in fourth place, just two points behind the Nerazzurri. The problem obviously also, if not above all, concerns Milan, who are forced to respond positively against Cagliari in order not to sink in the standings, but in the meantime the Romans are smiling and enjoying, for the first time in weeks, some serenity. It was vital for Roma to beat Chievo and the mission was completed after just a few minutes: first El Shaarawy (9'), then Dzeko (18') put Di Carlo's team on the ropes, directing the 3 points towards the Capital.

A success facilitated by the mistakes of the Veronese, perhaps already resigned to relegation, but the Giallorossi certainly seemed distant relatives of those humiliated in Florence, confirming the excellent progress made against Milan. And when Kolarov, the most contested after the defeat by the Franchi, signed the 3-0 (51'), there was the feeling that a circle had closed, almost wanting to dismiss the bad luck of the Cup as an "unforeseen" of the sector. “We got off to a very good start and I'm happy with the team's reaction - commented Di Francesco. - Maybe we could have scored a few more goals, but let's hope we kept them for the Champions League. We've been working on these concepts and I'm asking the guys that as soon as there's a chance to go vertical. Overall, I liked how the team reacted”. The Milanese have the task of responding, without forgetting the Naples, engaged, as previously mentioned, in the insidious trip to Florence. It goes without saying that the trip in question does not evoke good memories in the blue world: the 3-0 of the last championship, in fact, proved to be decisive for the purposes of the Scudetto, so much so that Napoli, not knowing how to read or write, decided to change hotel (the one where, according to Sarri, he lost the title watching Inter-Juve) and to move to Coverciano.

Obviously, this will not be Ancelotti's main move to beat Fiorentina, although the umpteenth press silence (decided, it is said, so as not to further complicate the sale of Hamsik) makes everything a little more nebulous. What is certain is that the Slovak will not be there: the negotiation with the Chinese del Dalian yifang is in the finishing straight, so much so that the player, on leave agreed with De Laurentiis, he went to Madrid for medical visits and not to the Franchi with the rest of the team. The other big problem of Ancelotti is called Albiol, stopped by a knee problem that risks being longer than expected, but otherwise his 4-4-2 will be the best possible with Meret in goal, Malcooked, Maximovich, Koulibaly and Mario Rui in defence, Callejon, Allan, Fabian Ruiz e Zielinski in midfield, Insigne e Owned in attack. 4-3-2-1 instead for Pioli, who will try to give a European dimension to Viola with lafont between the poles, Laurini, pezzella, Snipers and Biraghi in the back department, Gerson, Edimilson e Veretout in the median, Chiesa and Mirallas behind the only point Muriel.
