&lt;p&gt;Serie A Matchday 29 features a game that could prove decisive in the race for the Scudetto, and it will be the last direct meeting &lt;strong&gt;between the top three sides&lt;/strong&gt;. At the Gewiss Stadium, Gasperini’s men will be looking to overcome Atalanta’s poor record against Inter in order to steal their opposition’s place in the table and to rewrite the standings in the fight for the league title. Furthermore, there is a tough battle for the final &lt;strong&gt;Champions League spot&lt;/strong&gt; and it is more open than ever. Six teams, from fourth to ninth, are separated by only eight points, and absolutely anything could happen.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Juventus begin their &lt;strong&gt;tough run of fixtures&lt;/strong&gt; with the first of four tense away matches. After playing Fiorentina at the Franchi, the Bianconeri will play their next four games away from home at Roma, Bologna and Lazio. The Viola will also be starting a difficult run with matches against Juve, Atalanta and AC Milan. Lazio will also have to deal with a difficult schedule, with two crucial upcoming away games in Bologna and Bergamo before the Derby di Roma. &lt;strong&gt;In the fight for safety&lt;/strong&gt;, Verona will be involved in a fiery derby away at Udinese, while Parma and Empoli will be looking for precious points in difficult matches against Monza and Torino.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Genoa &lt;/strong&gt;are opening the weekend and they’ll be aiming to keep their &lt;strong&gt;solid home form &lt;/strong&gt;going against a struggling Lecce. The Rossoblù are unbeaten in eight Serie A home games against Lecce and they have only conceded five goals at the Ferraris since Vieira’s arrival, the best record of any side other than Napoli. However, Genoa struggle to get started in the &lt;strong&gt;first half&lt;/strong&gt;, having only scored five in the first 45 minutes, the worst record of any side in Europe’s top five leagues. &lt;strong&gt;Lecce, &lt;/strong&gt;on the other hand, are the lowest goal scoring side in the league (20 total goals, nine away), but they have the best defence in the final 30 minutes of games. Having lost their last three matches, Giampaolo’s men must rediscover their attacking prowess to move away from the relegation zone.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;b309d3c1-27c6-4e98-abdc-d8adfa33f9e5&#34; data-image-id=&#34;b309d3c1-27c6-4e98-abdc-d8adfa33f9e5&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/4fd985c0-5daa-4f32-8e09-620e5d050837/Sito_HERO_Genoa.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;b309d3c1-27c6-4e98-abdc-d8adfa33f9e5&#34; data-image-id=&#34;b309d3c1-27c6-4e98-abdc-d8adfa33f9e5&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;Two teams looking for points to secure safety will face off at the Brianteo. &lt;strong&gt;Monza &lt;/strong&gt;have not scored in their last three home matches and they have lost 12 of their last 14 league games, the second worst record of any team in Europe’s top five leagues since December. &lt;strong&gt;Nesta’s &lt;/strong&gt;side suffer from dead balls: Monza have conceded the most goals from corners this season (eight). &lt;strong&gt;Parma &lt;/strong&gt;will look to exploit this as they are the team with the greatest &lt;strong&gt;percentage of goals scored&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;from corners&lt;/strong&gt; (24%). The Gialloblù, with &lt;strong&gt;Chivu &lt;/strong&gt;as manager, have almost taken the same amount of points in their last three matches (four) as they did in their previous eleven. Now they are trying to reset their &lt;strong&gt;away &lt;/strong&gt;record, having lost their last four and haven taken only eight points away from home all season.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;d06d771f-21a1-4dd4-996c-e0e14c9c31ed&#34; data-image-id=&#34;d06d771f-21a1-4dd4-996c-e0e14c9c31ed&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/28570d08-6357-402c-b917-3fcb68ab0399/Sito_HERO_Monza.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;d06d771f-21a1-4dd4-996c-e0e14c9c31ed&#34; data-image-id=&#34;d06d771f-21a1-4dd4-996c-e0e14c9c31ed&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Udinese &lt;/strong&gt;will play Verona in the Triveneto Derby which has been very even in their last eight meetings: two wins each and four draws, with their match earlier this season ending goalless. Udinese are unbeaten in their last six Serie A matches and they have found some form at the &lt;strong&gt;Bluenergy Stadium&lt;/strong&gt;, winning their last three home games after going six games without victory. &lt;strong&gt;Verona&lt;/strong&gt;, having lost four of their last five, have a tough schedule coming up with games against some of the league’s top sides. Verona have performed well against lower-ranked teams, remaining unbeaten in their last four matches against &lt;strong&gt;bottom-half&lt;/strong&gt; opposition - identical to their record against Udinese. A lot goes on in the &lt;strong&gt;opening phases of Verona’s games&lt;/strong&gt;, having scored six goals in the first 15 minutes (the third best record in the league). However, they are also the side who have conceded the most in this period of the game. They have the lowest average possession in the league (35%) and this could make for an intense match, full of ball recoveries.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;e789cb2e-9078-441d-a931-16ebb333c000&#34; data-image-id=&#34;e789cb2e-9078-441d-a931-16ebb333c000&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/08a1ba85-ac18-4aad-b447-5205ff7e98e0/Sito_HERO_Udinese.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;e789cb2e-9078-441d-a931-16ebb333c000&#34; data-image-id=&#34;e789cb2e-9078-441d-a931-16ebb333c000&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;AC Milan &lt;/strong&gt;will want to continue their push for a Champions League spot against a Como side who have proven their ability to challenge the big teams. The Rossoneri are unbeaten against Como in their last 12 Serie A matches and they have won all of their three meetings this century. However they still struggle &lt;strong&gt;defensively&lt;/strong&gt;: Conceição’s side have conceded two goals in each of their last six games. Como, on the other hand, have performed well against the top 10: 17 of their 29 points this season have come against sides in the top half of the table. Both teams love &lt;strong&gt;counter-attacking&lt;/strong&gt;: the Rossoneri and the Biancoblu are two of the four sides that have made the most attacking transitions this season. Apart from Juventus, they have the most goals from counter attacks this season (six). Keep an eye on Assane &lt;strong&gt;Diao&lt;/strong&gt; and Nico &lt;strong&gt;Paz&lt;/strong&gt;, two players that are rewriting the club’s history. Como are only the second team in the last 50 years to have two under 21-year-old players, both on five goals in a single Serie A season.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;84932b53-894d-4c96-8ecb-e1eeba5f80c8&#34; data-image-id=&#34;84932b53-894d-4c96-8ecb-e1eeba5f80c8&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/b0b7c8f1-6876-43d5-8a34-6b7def48962f/Sito_HERO_Milan.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;84932b53-894d-4c96-8ecb-e1eeba5f80c8&#34; data-image-id=&#34;84932b53-894d-4c96-8ecb-e1eeba5f80c8&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Torino &lt;/strong&gt;are determined to keep their strong attacking form up, having scored in their last nine matches. However, they will look to improve their &lt;strong&gt;home record&lt;/strong&gt; having won only 17 points in 13 games. &lt;strong&gt;Empoli, &lt;/strong&gt;on the other hand, haven’t won in 13 matches, but they have a surprising stat: away from home, they have scored 18 goals, more than triple their five goals at home this season. D’Aversa’s squad have, therefore, proven their ability to threaten on the road and they will look to exploit Torino in the air as they have conceded &lt;strong&gt;10 headers this season&lt;/strong&gt;, the second worst record of any team. Both sides are fighting intensely but they are struggling in &lt;strong&gt;individual duels: &lt;/strong&gt;Torino and Empoli are amongst the bottom three teams in terms of duels won this season (46% and 48% respectively).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;13c59381-5495-404b-a1b7-96ac8d42255f&#34; data-image-id=&#34;13c59381-5495-404b-a1b7-96ac8d42255f&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/f7349cd2-6da9-4f5a-ac08-b7625e4dd848/Sito_HERO_Torino.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;13c59381-5495-404b-a1b7-96ac8d42255f&#34; data-image-id=&#34;13c59381-5495-404b-a1b7-96ac8d42255f&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Venezia &lt;/strong&gt;are looking to reach a turning point in the season: they haven’t won for eleven games and they are desperate for a first win in 2025. However, in their last seven home games, they have only lost to Inter and Roma, so they will hope to build on this strength &lt;strong&gt;at the Penzo &lt;/strong&gt;against another big team. &lt;strong&gt;Napoli, &lt;/strong&gt;on the other hand, will aim to iron out &lt;strong&gt;defensive issues&lt;/strong&gt; having conceded in all of their last eight league games. This will certainly not be a game for counter-attacking as Venezia and Napoli are the two teams that have the least counter attacks in the league this season. They must also both improve in front of goal: while Napoli have the lowest percentage of shots on target of any side in the top ten (43.7%), Venezia have a conversion rate of 8.2%, the second-worst record in the league. The match will be decided by the teams` finishing ability in what has historically been a balanced fixture in Venice, with both sides having two wins each and three draws.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;48d4db6c-888d-4c50-ae0d-9f3c918fc55d&#34; data-image-id=&#34;48d4db6c-888d-4c50-ae0d-9f3c918fc55d&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/5586f417-0655-4024-9536-5d1799b4e7e0/Sito_HERO_Venezia.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;48d4db6c-888d-4c50-ae0d-9f3c918fc55d&#34; data-image-id=&#34;48d4db6c-888d-4c50-ae0d-9f3c918fc55d&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;On Sunday at 15:00 CET, &lt;strong&gt;Lazio &lt;/strong&gt;will be heading to Bologna for a European face-off between two of this season’s most exciting teams: read our &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.legaseriea.it/en/media/serie-a/bologna-vs-lazio-champions-league-implications-739105n&#34;&gt;in-depth analysis of the game&lt;/a&gt; where we look at match themes and we also take a brief dive into the footballing careers of the two coaches.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;0ada4749-32e0-4a5a-94f5-f924bf41cad8&#34; data-image-id=&#34;0ada4749-32e0-4a5a-94f5-f924bf41cad8&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/69a3be35-55ba-4def-ba53-33f5f230ac1c/Sito_HERO_Bologna.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;0ada4749-32e0-4a5a-94f5-f924bf41cad8&#34; data-image-id=&#34;0ada4749-32e0-4a5a-94f5-f924bf41cad8&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;After their bitter European elimination at the hands of Athletic Bilbao, &lt;strong&gt;Roma &lt;/strong&gt;will look to continue their form in the league in order to keep climbing the table. The numbers favour the Giallorossi, who have been on an &lt;strong&gt;impressive streak &lt;/strong&gt;in 2025: with 26 points won since the start of the year, Ranieri’s team are fresh off of five consecutive wins and they will be determined to make it six, which Roma haven’t managed since 2016 under Spalletti. Their record against &lt;strong&gt;Cagliari &lt;/strong&gt;is also encouraging: Roma are unbeaten in nine matches at the Olimpico against the Sardininians. Undoubtedly, &lt;strong&gt;Cagliari &lt;/strong&gt;will be determined, but they have struggled against the big teams: the Rossoblù, alongside Lecce, are the only team to have not won against top-half opposition so far this season. Furthermore, their recent form is not great, with only one win in their last six. In order to surprise Roma, Nicola will have to look out for a worrying stat: Cagliari are one of the teams who have conceded the most goals in the first 15 minutes of the second half (10).&lt;br&gt;One of the Giallorossi’s strengths is their ability to recover the ball high up the pitch, with 201 &lt;strong&gt;recoveries in advanced areas&lt;/strong&gt;. Cagliari, however, have made 137, which is the second-worst record in the league. Furthermore, Roma are strong from distance with &lt;strong&gt;eight goals outside the area&lt;/strong&gt;, (second only to Atalanta - 9) with their latest long-distance strike coming from Soulé.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;311aaab6-bf59-4513-bbe9-0483b910b74a&#34; data-image-id=&#34;311aaab6-bf59-4513-bbe9-0483b910b74a&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/862da037-bbd2-4789-a08b-eec654d44e67/Sito_HERO_Roma.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;311aaab6-bf59-4513-bbe9-0483b910b74a&#34; data-image-id=&#34;311aaab6-bf59-4513-bbe9-0483b910b74a&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;Fiorentina are welcoming Juventus for a tense clash between two sides who are looking to find the best versions of themselves for this final stage of the season.

With 10 matches to go, La Dea are only three points off of first place, an achievement that they have never managed at this point of a season. However, &lt;strong&gt;Inter &lt;/strong&gt;are the toughest opponent imaginable: the Nerazzurri are unbeaten in their last 12 league games against Atalanta, winning the last five, scoring 16 and conceding only five. They are even more dominant in all competitions having won all of their last seven against Gasperini’s men.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Atalanta are coming into the match with their best record ever: they have lost only one of their last 23 league matches, but they must improve their &lt;strong&gt;home form: &lt;/strong&gt;in 2025, La Dea haven’t yet won in five home games in Serie A. Inter, on the other hand, have the second best &lt;strong&gt;away record &lt;/strong&gt;in the league with 28 points taken in 14 away games, level with Napoli and only behind Atalanta (33 points in 15 games). The Nerazzurri have however shown signs of difficulty away from San Siro, having gone without a win in their last four away games.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How do you win a game like this? Let’s find out with &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.legaseriea.it/en/media/serie-a/brocchi-s-analysis-of-atalanta-vs-inter-7399cjl&#34;&gt;Cristian Brocchi’s tactical analysis&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;0bd552ab-7050-46fa-8445-c48bd4b5583d&#34; data-image-id=&#34;0bd552ab-7050-46fa-8445-c48bd4b5583d&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/e7ea64b4-3cf6-4068-b337-7bc4fbf4d1a1/Sito_HERO_Atalanta.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;0bd552ab-7050-46fa-8445-c48bd4b5583d&#34; data-image-id=&#34;0bd552ab-7050-46fa-8445-c48bd4b5583d&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Photo Getty Images)&lt;/p&gt;

Serie A Matchday 29 features a game that could prove decisive in the race for the Scudetto, and it will be the last direct meeting between the top three sides. At the Gewiss Stadium, Gasperini’s men will be looking to overcome Atalanta’s poor record against Inter in order to steal their opposition’s place in the table and to rewrite the standings in the fight for the league title. Furthermore, there is a tough battle for the final Champions League spot and it is more open than ever. Six teams, from fourth to ninth, are separated by only eight points, and absolutely anything could happen.Juventus begin their tough run of fixtures with the first of four tense away matches. After playing Fiorentina at the Franchi, the Bianconeri will play their next four games away from home at Roma, Bologna and Lazio. The Viola will also be starting a difficult run with matches against Juve, Atalanta and AC Milan. Lazio will also have to deal with a difficult schedule, with two crucial upcoming away games in Bologna and Bergamo before the Derby di Roma. In the fight for safety, Verona will be involved in a fiery derby away at Udinese, while Parma and Empoli will be looking for precious points in difficult matches against Monza and Torino.Genoa are opening the weekend and they’ll be aiming to keep their solid home form going against a struggling Lecce. The Rossoblù are unbeaten in eight Serie A home games against Lecce and they have only conceded five goals at the Ferraris since Vieira’s arrival, the best record of any side other than Napoli. However, Genoa struggle to get started in the first half, having only scored five in the first 45 minutes, the worst record of any side in Europe’s top five leagues. Lecce, on the other hand, are the lowest goal scoring side in the league (20 total goals, nine away), but they have the best defence in the final 30 minutes of games. Having lost their last three matches, Giampaolo’s men must rediscover their attacking prowess to move away from the relegation zone.<figure data-asset-id="b309d3c1-27c6-4e98-abdc-d8adfa33f9e5" data-image-id="b309d3c1-27c6-4e98-abdc-d8adfa33f9e5"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/4fd985c0-5daa-4f32-8e09-620e5d050837/Sito_HERO_Genoa.png" data-asset-id="b309d3c1-27c6-4e98-abdc-d8adfa33f9e5" data-image-id="b309d3c1-27c6-4e98-abdc-d8adfa33f9e5" alt=""></figure>Two teams looking for points to secure safety will face off at the Brianteo. Monza have not scored in their last three home matches and they have lost 12 of their last 14 league games, the second worst record of any team in Europe’s top five leagues since December. Nesta’s side suffer from dead balls: Monza have conceded the most goals from corners this season (eight). Parma will look to exploit this as they are the team with the greatest percentage of goals scored from corners (24%). The Gialloblù, with Chivu as manager, have almost taken the same amount of points in their last three matches (four) as they did in their previous eleven. Now they are trying to reset their away record, having lost their last four and haven taken only eight points away from home all season.<figure data-asset-id="d06d771f-21a1-4dd4-996c-e0e14c9c31ed" data-image-id="d06d771f-21a1-4dd4-996c-e0e14c9c31ed"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/28570d08-6357-402c-b917-3fcb68ab0399/Sito_HERO_Monza.png" data-asset-id="d06d771f-21a1-4dd4-996c-e0e14c9c31ed" data-image-id="d06d771f-21a1-4dd4-996c-e0e14c9c31ed" alt=""></figure>Udinese will play Verona in the Triveneto Derby which has been very even in their last eight meetings: two wins each and four draws, with their match earlier this season ending goalless. Udinese are unbeaten in their last six Serie A matches and they have found some form at the Bluenergy Stadium, winning their last three home games after going six games without victory. Verona, having lost four of their last five, have a tough schedule coming up with games against some of the league’s top sides. Verona have performed well against lower-ranked teams, remaining unbeaten in their last four matches against bottom-half opposition - identical to their record against Udinese. A lot goes on in the opening phases of Verona’s games, having scored six goals in the first 15 minutes (the third best record in the league). However, they are also the side who have conceded the most in this period of the game. They have the lowest average possession in the league (35%) and this could make for an intense match, full of ball recoveries.<figure data-asset-id="e789cb2e-9078-441d-a931-16ebb333c000" data-image-id="e789cb2e-9078-441d-a931-16ebb333c000"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/08a1ba85-ac18-4aad-b447-5205ff7e98e0/Sito_HERO_Udinese.png" data-asset-id="e789cb2e-9078-441d-a931-16ebb333c000" data-image-id="e789cb2e-9078-441d-a931-16ebb333c000" alt=""></figure>AC Milan will want to continue their push for a Champions League spot against a Como side who have proven their ability to challenge the big teams. The Rossoneri are unbeaten against Como in their last 12 Serie A matches and they have won all of their three meetings this century. However they still struggle defensively: Conceição’s side have conceded two goals in each of their last six games. Como, on the other hand, have performed well against the top 10: 17 of their 29 points this season have come against sides in the top half of the table. Both teams love counter-attacking: the Rossoneri and the Biancoblu are two of the four sides that have made the most attacking transitions this season. Apart from Juventus, they have the most goals from counter attacks this season (six). Keep an eye on Assane Diao and Nico Paz, two players that are rewriting the club’s history. Como are only the second team in the last 50 years to have two under 21-year-old players, both on five goals in a single Serie A season.<figure data-asset-id="84932b53-894d-4c96-8ecb-e1eeba5f80c8" data-image-id="84932b53-894d-4c96-8ecb-e1eeba5f80c8"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/b0b7c8f1-6876-43d5-8a34-6b7def48962f/Sito_HERO_Milan.png" data-asset-id="84932b53-894d-4c96-8ecb-e1eeba5f80c8" data-image-id="84932b53-894d-4c96-8ecb-e1eeba5f80c8" alt=""></figure>Torino are determined to keep their strong attacking form up, having scored in their last nine matches. However, they will look to improve their home record having won only 17 points in 13 games. Empoli, on the other hand, haven’t won in 13 matches, but they have a surprising stat: away from home, they have scored 18 goals, more than triple their five goals at home this season. D’Aversa’s squad have, therefore, proven their ability to threaten on the road and they will look to exploit Torino in the air as they have conceded 10 headers this season, the second worst record of any team. Both sides are fighting intensely but they are struggling in individual duels: Torino and Empoli are amongst the bottom three teams in terms of duels won this season (46% and 48% respectively).<figure data-asset-id="13c59381-5495-404b-a1b7-96ac8d42255f" data-image-id="13c59381-5495-404b-a1b7-96ac8d42255f"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/f7349cd2-6da9-4f5a-ac08-b7625e4dd848/Sito_HERO_Torino.png" data-asset-id="13c59381-5495-404b-a1b7-96ac8d42255f" data-image-id="13c59381-5495-404b-a1b7-96ac8d42255f" alt=""></figure>Venezia are looking to reach a turning point in the season: they haven’t won for eleven games and they are desperate for a first win in 2025. However, in their last seven home games, they have only lost to Inter and Roma, so they will hope to build on this strength at the Penzo against another big team. Napoli, on the other hand, will aim to iron out defensive issues having conceded in all of their last eight league games. This will certainly not be a game for counter-attacking as Venezia and Napoli are the two teams that have the least counter attacks in the league this season. They must also both improve in front of goal: while Napoli have the lowest percentage of shots on target of any side in the top ten (43.7%), Venezia have a conversion rate of 8.2%, the second-worst record in the league. The match will be decided by the teams` finishing ability in what has historically been a balanced fixture in Venice, with both sides having two wins each and three draws.<figure data-asset-id="48d4db6c-888d-4c50-ae0d-9f3c918fc55d" data-image-id="48d4db6c-888d-4c50-ae0d-9f3c918fc55d"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/5586f417-0655-4024-9536-5d1799b4e7e0/Sito_HERO_Venezia.png" data-asset-id="48d4db6c-888d-4c50-ae0d-9f3c918fc55d" data-image-id="48d4db6c-888d-4c50-ae0d-9f3c918fc55d" alt=""></figure>On Sunday at 15:00 CET, Lazio will be heading to Bologna for a European face-off between two of this season’s most exciting teams: read our <a href="https://www.legaseriea.it/en/media/serie-a/bologna-vs-lazio-champions-league-implications-739105n">in-depth analysis of the game</a> where we look at match themes and we also take a brief dive into the footballing careers of the two coaches.<figure data-asset-id="0ada4749-32e0-4a5a-94f5-f924bf41cad8" data-image-id="0ada4749-32e0-4a5a-94f5-f924bf41cad8"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/69a3be35-55ba-4def-ba53-33f5f230ac1c/Sito_HERO_Bologna.png" data-asset-id="0ada4749-32e0-4a5a-94f5-f924bf41cad8" data-image-id="0ada4749-32e0-4a5a-94f5-f924bf41cad8" alt=""></figure>After their bitter European elimination at the hands of Athletic Bilbao, Roma will look to continue their form in the league in order to keep climbing the table. The numbers favour the Giallorossi, who have been on an impressive streak in 2025: with 26 points won since the start of the year, Ranieri’s team are fresh off of five consecutive wins and they will be determined to make it six, which Roma haven’t managed since 2016 under Spalletti. Their record against Cagliari is also encouraging: Roma are unbeaten in nine matches at the Olimpico against the Sardininians. Undoubtedly, Cagliari will be determined, but they have struggled against the big teams: the Rossoblù, alongside Lecce, are the only team to have not won against top-half opposition so far this season. Furthermore, their recent form is not great, with only one win in their last six. In order to surprise Roma, Nicola will have to look out for a worrying stat: Cagliari are one of the teams who have conceded the most goals in the first 15 minutes of the second half (10). One of the Giallorossi’s strengths is their ability to recover the ball high up the pitch, with 201 recoveries in advanced areas. Cagliari, however, have made 137, which is the second-worst record in the league. Furthermore, Roma are strong from distance with eight goals outside the area, (second only to Atalanta - 9) with their latest long-distance strike coming from Soulé.<figure data-asset-id="311aaab6-bf59-4513-bbe9-0483b910b74a" data-image-id="311aaab6-bf59-4513-bbe9-0483b910b74a"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/862da037-bbd2-4789-a08b-eec654d44e67/Sito_HERO_Roma.png" data-asset-id="311aaab6-bf59-4513-bbe9-0483b910b74a" data-image-id="311aaab6-bf59-4513-bbe9-0483b910b74a" alt=""></figure>Fiorentina are welcoming Juventus for a tense clash between two sides who are looking to find the best versions of themselves for this final stage of the season.

With 10 matches to go, La Dea are only three points off of first place, an achievement that they have never managed at this point of a season. However, Inter are the toughest opponent imaginable: the Nerazzurri are unbeaten in their last 12 league games against Atalanta, winning the last five, scoring 16 and conceding only five. They are even more dominant in all competitions having won all of their last seven against Gasperini’s men.Atalanta are coming into the match with their best record ever: they have lost only one of their last 23 league matches, but they must improve their home form: in 2025, La Dea haven’t yet won in five home games in Serie A. Inter, on the other hand, have the second best away record in the league with 28 points taken in 14 away games, level with Napoli and only behind Atalanta (33 points in 15 games). The Nerazzurri have however shown signs of difficulty away from San Siro, having gone without a win in their last four away games.How do you win a game like this?
