Six games and 11 points. Juventus sees the finish line for the Scudetto race and the countdown to the final party begins, albeit with their heads focused on 3 goals, among which the European one stands out. Today, however, is not the time to think about Monaco and the Champions League but "only" about Genoa (20.45 pm), a fundamental stage to bring the sixth consecutive title closer. “Here we play for the championship, we beat the rossoblu and then we can even afford to miss two games – thought Allegri. – These would be 3 fundamental points, starting next Friday we will play every 3 days so we have a duty to do our best. We will only think about the Champions League after the next two games, now it's time to focus on the championship." The leitmotif is the usual and given the results we can only congratulate Allegri, always very good at keeping everyone on track, even when his head could really go elsewhere. However, the post-Barcelona euphoria must be archived as soon as possible, just as befits a top club at the level of the black and whites, now on the same level as the world giants. Against Genoa commitment and concentration will be needed, only in this way there will be no jokes but 3 fundamental points to send Roma, albeit temporarily, to minus 11 in the standings and start organizing the Scudetto party. Allegri will take into account the tiredness of the Camp Nou veterans, which is why tonight his 4-2-3-1 formation will be very different from the one seen on Wednesday, with Neto in goal, Lichtsteiner, Barzagli, Benatia and Asamoah in defense, Marchisio and Khedira in midfield, Lemina, Dybala and Mandzukic in the frontline, Higuain in attack.
Juric, able a group ago to beat the Lady with an incredible 3-1, will respond with a 3-4-3 with Lamanna between the posts, Munoz, Burdisso and Gentiletti in the back department, Lazovic, Veloso, Cataldi and Laxalt in the midfield, Ntcham, Simeone and Palladino in the offensive trident. However, Sarri's Napoli will open Sunday football, engaged in the "lunch match" at 12.30 on the Sassuolo field. Delicate match for the Azzurri, who in case of victory would find themselves in second place in the standings, albeit awaiting Roma's away game tomorrow in Pescara. “To achieve this goal we have to go through every single race, without ever making a mistake – explained the coach. – Sassuolo are a quality team, this year they have paid for a series of situations but in the single match they are very dangerous”. However, in the conference on the eve, thanks to the renewal of Insigne's contract until 2022, there was a lot of talk about different issues, including the future of Sarri himself. “Lorenzo can become the flag of the city, but I don't have a long contract, maybe next year will be the last – glossed over the coach. – Future goals cannot be planned, there are clubs that are stronger than us from many points of view and different circumstances would have to occur to win the Scudetto”. Today, however, what counts above all is beating Sassuolo and Sarri will try with the usual 4-3-3, with Reina in goal, Hysaj, Albiol, Koulibaly and Strinic in defense, Allan, Jorginho and Hamsik in midfield, Callejon, Mertens and Insigne in attack . Di Francesco will try to embellish his team's season with the same system, with Consigli between the posts, Adjapong, Acerbi, Cannavaro and Letschert in the back department, Pellegrini, Aquilani and Duncan in the midfield, Berardi, Defrel and Ragusa in the offensive trident.
