Football. Ua presents to your attention the announcement of the matches of the thirty-seventh round of the championship of Italy, which will be held on Saturday.

To save at least a ghost chance for the Scudetto and to protect themselves from Napoli's claims to second place, Roma must necessarily beat Chievo. Napoli, if indeed wants a direct pass to the group round of the Champions League, must beat Fiorentina, for which the defeat in Naples can close the way to the Europa League.

The schedule for the matches of the Chievo-Roma tour Saturday, 19:00, Verona, Marc Antonio Bentegodi Stadium, referee - Antonio Damato.

The victory over Juventus in the last round certainly inspired Roma for new exploits. But the trouble is that the Wolves do not know how competitive opponents Juve will be in the two remaining rounds - Croton and Bologna - and will they have enough strength not to give Old Signor more than one point ... But in any case, Roma should win their own The remaining two matches - in the last round of Genoa and now - at Chievo. And if you consider that failure can throw Jallorossi to third place and send to the playoffs of the Champions League, where the Wolves traditionally feel atrocious, then there is a fight for what.

Since Juventus will play his match on Sunday and Napoli on Saturday, but later in Verona, Roma will not know his fate yet, so Flying Asses can only be sympathetic: Wolves will tear them to pieces. True, their main striking force - Edin Dzeko - is unlikely to be able to help the team because of the consequences of a recent injury, but Luchezano Spalletti Juve's wards were defeated without a Bosnian! There is also good news for the guests: Kevin Strootman departed his two-legged disqualification for the simulation and will be able to strengthen the team.

Roma in his last five away matches scores at least three goals, so that the Flying Asses, which has actually started the summer vacation, will not be up to the flights ... However, Chievo does not know the defeats in the last three games, however, and his opponents were not particularly: Genoa, Palermo and Sampdoria.

Interesting facts - The last time Chievo beat Roma at his stadium in December 2012.

- Wolves do not know defeats in fights against Flying Asses at home and on departure since May 2013.

Approximate compositions Chievo: Sorrentino - Cacciatore, Gamberini, Cesar, Gobbi - Depaoli, Radovanovich, Bastien - Castro - Inglese, Pelcia.

Roma: Szczesny - Rudiger, Manolas, Fasio, Emerson - Nainggolan, De Rossi, Paredes - Perotti - Salah, El Shaarawi.

Do not play: Spolley, Mejorini, Hetemay - Florence.

In doubt - Jack (Roma).

Forecast 0: 2 Napoli - Fiorentina Saturday, 21:45, Napoli, Stadio San Paolo, referee - Nicola Rizzoli.

The duel in Naples can well be called a battle for Europe. The hosts, who have already secured the Champions League, are not averse to avoid possible vicissitudes of fate in the playoffs, having pre-determined their place in the group round. It is worth mentioning, perhaps, about the shadowy hope of the Partenopeyev on the Scudetto, but the alignment in which Juventus and Roma suffer two losses in the last two rounds, while Napoli wins two victories, seems too fantastic.

And Fiorentina's tasks are both more modest and more difficult: to beat Milan, having played one point behind in the remaining two rounds, and to jump into the last trailer of the train carrying lucky ones into European cups. The latest results of Vialok do not give a special reason for optimism: two defeats, two draws and two wins, the last of which is over the semi-duplicating composition of Lazio. True, considering the state of the current Milan, ahead of the Devils is quite realistic.

An interesting fact - Fiorentina can not beat Napoli since March 2014, twice in a draw and five times losing in all tournaments.

Approximate compositions of Napoli: Reina - Hisai, Albiol, Coulibaly, Gulam - Zielinski, Diawara, Hamshik - Kalehon, Mertens, Insigne.

Fiorentina: Teterushanu - Tomovic, Rodriguez, Sanchez - Chiesa, Vesino, Cristoforo, Milic - Bernardeski, Babakar - Kalinich.

Do not play: Astori, Borja Valero (Fiorentina).

Forecast 3: 1 Standings.
