&lt;p&gt;With the whistle marking the start of matchday 20, a new season effectively begins for the 20 Serie A Enilive teams. The fates of coaches and teams will be decided in the next 19 matches, which could determine who will confirm their positive results so far, and who will need to recover from a disappointing run. Back from Saudi Arabia and recovering from their Supercoppa exploits, Inter and Atalanta are ready to put pressure on Napoli in the title race, while AC Milan and Juventus need to climb the table in order to secure a Champions League spot, with Lazio currently occupying fourth place in the league. At the bottom, the situation is equally uncertain, with Monza and Venezia needing to gather points to avoid losing ground on the other relegation battling sides. Completing the picture are eight other sides, separated by just four points.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The big return begins on Friday evening with &lt;strong&gt;Lazio vs. Como&lt;/strong&gt;. Baroni’s Biancocelesti, will look to react in front of their fans after a turbulent run of results. However, they have not won in their last two home matches and have only gained seven points in their last six matches. &lt;strong&gt;Como&lt;/strong&gt;, on the other hand, come into the match in great spirits thanks to an improvement in their performances, which has helped them record eight points in their last six outings. The statistics suggest that both sides are among the best in the league when it comes to&lt;strong&gt; dribbles completed &lt;/strong&gt;and the number of &lt;strong&gt;shots following an offensive recovery&lt;/strong&gt;. However, they also highlight that the Lariani have failed to keep a clean sheet away from home, a feat that will be difficult to achieve against the third-best attack in the league.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;b299bc1e-7eaf-48f1-b1d6-bfa3b74176d2&#34; data-image-id=&#34;b299bc1e-7eaf-48f1-b1d6-bfa3b74176d2&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/8129f7ed-9988-4ce6-bb61-c31941c689cd/Sito_HERO_laz.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;b299bc1e-7eaf-48f1-b1d6-bfa3b74176d2&#34; data-image-id=&#34;b299bc1e-7eaf-48f1-b1d6-bfa3b74176d2&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;At the Castellani Computer Gross Arena, &lt;strong&gt;Empoli&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;Lecce&lt;/strong&gt; face each other as they look for points in the &lt;strong&gt;fight for survival&lt;/strong&gt;. The Tuscan side have not won in four consecutive games and come off the back of back to back home defeats, however, they still boast a small &lt;strong&gt;margin&lt;/strong&gt; above the relegation zone, after a strong start to the season. Historically, Empoli have always stayed in the league when they have reached &lt;strong&gt;20 points&lt;/strong&gt; after 19 matches. Despite their struggles on the road (with just two goals scored in nine away games), the Salentini have always given their best against &lt;strong&gt;direct rivals&lt;/strong&gt;, being the team that has earned the highest percentage of points in the top half of the league this season: 16 of their 17 points have come in direct relegation battles.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;930f5fca-9c68-4b10-babe-b55180783028&#34; data-image-id=&#34;930f5fca-9c68-4b10-babe-b55180783028&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/9e94f5ad-f29a-473b-920a-120fdb7ee0b9/Sito_HERO_emp.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;930f5fca-9c68-4b10-babe-b55180783028&#34; data-image-id=&#34;930f5fca-9c68-4b10-babe-b55180783028&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Atalanta &lt;/strong&gt;begin the second half of the season with the goal of continuing their unstoppable march towards the top of the table, as they aim to lengthen their 13 game &lt;strong&gt;unbeaten streak&lt;/strong&gt; (eleven wins and two draws). The Nerazzurri are in excellent form despite their recent loss against Inter in the Supercoppa and will aim to defeat &lt;strong&gt;Udinese &lt;/strong&gt;to keep their dreams alive. Both sides have excelled in &lt;strong&gt;set-piece&lt;/strong&gt; situations: Atalanta are first when it comes to goals from dead-ball situations with eight, while Udinese follow closely behind with seven. Additionally, the two sides are among the top three teams for &lt;strong&gt;headed goals&lt;/strong&gt; in the league (Atalanta 9, Udinese 8).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;e23137bb-9dca-4b4f-a87d-44ea145499fb&#34; data-image-id=&#34;e23137bb-9dca-4b4f-a87d-44ea145499fb&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/3657c837-6be9-453c-8118-8a9ff4bdeeb8/Sito_HERO_udi.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;e23137bb-9dca-4b4f-a87d-44ea145499fb&#34; data-image-id=&#34;e23137bb-9dca-4b4f-a87d-44ea145499fb&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;The&lt;strong&gt; Derby della Mole &lt;/strong&gt;between Torino and &lt;strong&gt;Juventus&lt;/strong&gt; is one of the most anticipated games of the weekend. The Bianconeri, unbeaten in the league, ended the first half of the season with a &lt;strong&gt;record number of draws&lt;/strong&gt; for a club at this stage, eleven in 18 matches, while &lt;strong&gt;Torino&lt;/strong&gt; have been dragged into a relegation battle after a promising start. The Granata, who have not won the derby since 2017, will face one of the most solid defences in the league and will need to avoid making errors if they are to &lt;strong&gt;steer clear of the dropzone&lt;/strong&gt;. Tactically speaking, neither side excels in offensive pressing: the Bianconeri are fourth from last in offensive recoveries and have scored just one goal this way, while Torino have yet to score after an offensive recovery and are second to last when it comes to ball recoveries in the final third (47).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;3c55eb3e-008e-415a-96d7-080cfbf01d0a&#34; data-image-id=&#34;3c55eb3e-008e-415a-96d7-080cfbf01d0a&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/718676ee-9ab6-4796-ab36-d16e52d72c0f/Sito_HERO_tor.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;3c55eb3e-008e-415a-96d7-080cfbf01d0a&#34; data-image-id=&#34;3c55eb3e-008e-415a-96d7-080cfbf01d0a&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;San Siro welcomes &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.legaseriea.it/en/media/supercoppa/milan-celebrate-8th-supercup-1435ad6cc357b0&#34; data-new-window=&#34;true&#34; target=&#34;_blank&#34; rel=&#34;noopener noreferrer&#34;&gt;the champions of the EA SPORTS FC Supercup&lt;/a&gt; back from Riyadh as well as the new AC Milan Head coach for his first home game. Following on from the historic Supercoppa win, &lt;strong&gt;Conceição&lt;/strong&gt; is chasing another &lt;strong&gt;historic milestone&lt;/strong&gt;: the last AC Milan Coach to win his first three matches in all competitions was Arrigo Sacchi in August 1987. Despite having the &lt;strong&gt;best home defence&lt;/strong&gt; in the league with just five goals conceded in nine matches, the Rossoneri have drawn three of their last four games at the Meazza and need a significant turnaround to move closer to the Champions League spots. &lt;strong&gt;Cagliari&lt;/strong&gt;, fresh off a crucial away win against Monza and recalling their thrilling draw in the first half of the season, will look for a prestigious result. Nicola’s side are one of two sides without a clean sheet away from home this season, but their &lt;strong&gt;resilience&lt;/strong&gt; is a key strength: only Atalanta (eleven) have recorded more points from &lt;strong&gt;losing positions&lt;/strong&gt; than Cagliari (nine).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;d9aa523c-23b5-4d9d-ad9a-0b7fc4e702bb&#34; data-image-id=&#34;d9aa523c-23b5-4d9d-ad9a-0b7fc4e702bb&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/c8644a9e-86a4-4beb-b8b2-f25c1a19d1ad/Sito_HERO_mil.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;d9aa523c-23b5-4d9d-ad9a-0b7fc4e702bb&#34; data-image-id=&#34;d9aa523c-23b5-4d9d-ad9a-0b7fc4e702bb&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;At the Luigi Ferraris, &lt;strong&gt;Genoa&lt;/strong&gt; host Parma in a crucial match in the battle for survival. The Grifone boast one of the best &lt;strong&gt;defensive records&lt;/strong&gt; in the last nine games, with five clean sheets and just one defeat. They are determined to break their &lt;strong&gt;home curse&lt;/strong&gt; which, alongside Monza, makes them the only other team yet to win a home game this season. &lt;strong&gt;Parma&lt;/strong&gt;, on the other hand, are struggling to find consistency in their performances but have shown signs of improvement in recent weeks and could remain unbeaten in at least three consecutive matches. Both sides will need to contend with their respective &lt;strong&gt;challenges&lt;/strong&gt;: the Rossoblù hold the negative record for goals scored in the first half (four), while the Emiliani have conceded the most goals in the final &lt;strong&gt;30 minutes of play&lt;/strong&gt; (16).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;dad4fe56-f5bb-470a-a7fd-d575757c3c64&#34; data-image-id=&#34;dad4fe56-f5bb-470a-a7fd-d575757c3c64&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/9390389c-91c1-4e33-b407-d9d5ff02395f/Sito_HERO_gen.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;dad4fe56-f5bb-470a-a7fd-d575757c3c64&#34; data-image-id=&#34;dad4fe56-f5bb-470a-a7fd-d575757c3c64&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;At the Penzo, struggling Venezia are set to take on high-flying &lt;strong&gt;Inter&lt;/strong&gt;. The Nerazzurri have won their last five league matches, conceding just one goal in the process. Furthermore, Inzaghi’s men have won five consecutive &lt;strong&gt;away&lt;/strong&gt; matches, scoring 18 and shipping no goals at all. Inter thus have the opportunity to record &lt;strong&gt;six consecutive Serie A away wins&lt;/strong&gt; without conceding for the first time in history. However, the Nerazzurri can’t take things for granted against a Venezia side who are unbeaten in three home matches and pose a threat from set-pieces, with ten of their 18 goals having arrived from these situations. On the other hand, Inter are one of three sides who have found the net six times from &lt;strong&gt;corners&lt;/strong&gt; (the highest tally), from which Venezia have conceded the most goals across the division (seven).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;a06fb659-8a3c-43dc-994b-a87d1534e21a&#34; data-image-id=&#34;a06fb659-8a3c-43dc-994b-a87d1534e21a&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/d1bd29a1-c639-4491-9d2d-3706106dd821/Sito_HERO_venezia.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;a06fb659-8a3c-43dc-994b-a87d1534e21a&#34; data-image-id=&#34;a06fb659-8a3c-43dc-994b-a87d1534e21a&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bologna&lt;/strong&gt; will host &lt;strong&gt;Roma&lt;/strong&gt; in an important clash in the race for Europe. Despite falling to defeat at home to Verona last time out, the Rossoblù sit above the Giallorossi in the league and will face their next opponents in such a position for the third consecutive campaign. Fresh from their derby win, Ranieri’s men will be aiming to carry on their good recent form, record their first away win of the season and continue to climb the table. &lt;strong&gt;Italiano’s &lt;/strong&gt;side are the team who have spent the &lt;strong&gt;fewest minutes trailing&lt;/strong&gt; in home matches, but they’ve also &lt;strong&gt;dropped the most points from winning positions&lt;/strong&gt; on home soil (nine). &lt;strong&gt;Roma&lt;/strong&gt; are the side who have conceded the most goals from direct &lt;strong&gt;counter-attacks&lt;/strong&gt; (six), something they need to address against the Rossoblù, who have scored the most goals in the league from recoveries.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;477b300a-d562-400e-b9db-c5159d88c126&#34; data-image-id=&#34;477b300a-d562-400e-b9db-c5159d88c126&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/8432e949-977c-4ff7-9479-9142af13d41a/Sito_HERO_bol.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;477b300a-d562-400e-b9db-c5159d88c126&#34; data-image-id=&#34;477b300a-d562-400e-b9db-c5159d88c126&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sunday evening will see &lt;strong&gt;Napoli&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;Hellas&lt;/strong&gt; face off at the Maradona. After their 3-0 win on the opening matchday, Verona could beat the Partenopei twice in a single Serie A season for the first time in history. It’d be a bit of a surprise if they managed to do so: Napoli haven’t lost any of their last 19 home matches against Hellas in Serie A, the Partenopei’s &lt;strong&gt;longest ongoing streak&lt;/strong&gt; against a single opposition side in the Italian top flight. Conte’s Napoli have &lt;strong&gt;kept the most clean sheets&lt;/strong&gt; across the top five European leagues this season (eleven), and they’ve also conceded the &lt;strong&gt;fewest number of goals&lt;/strong&gt; (twelve). However, &lt;strong&gt;Zanetti’s &lt;/strong&gt;men, who have won their last two away games in Serie A, will head into the game with belief, aware that the Azzurri have alternated between losing and winning in their last four league matches at the Maradona.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;6f809d9d-f50a-47c4-9d62-f7ddeffdd485&#34; data-image-id=&#34;6f809d9d-f50a-47c4-9d62-f7ddeffdd485&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/adf059b2-a2e1-4dd5-b94a-309b93827824/Sito_HERO_nap.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;6f809d9d-f50a-47c4-9d62-f7ddeffdd485&#34; data-image-id=&#34;6f809d9d-f50a-47c4-9d62-f7ddeffdd485&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;The latest round of fixtures will come to an end on Monday, when Fiorentina coach &lt;strong&gt;Raffaele&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Palladino &lt;/strong&gt;will face his former side in &lt;strong&gt;Monza&lt;/strong&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Bocchetti’s &lt;/strong&gt;Brianzoli, who sit bottom of the table, are seven points adrift of safety and have lost their last five matches. Monza now need to &lt;strong&gt;pull off something historic&lt;/strong&gt;. Indeed, since Serie A became a 20-team league, only two of the 13 sides who had ten or fewer points after 19 matches then managed to avoid relegation come the end of the campaign: Crotone in 2016/17 (nine points) and Cagliari in 2007/08 (ten). The Viola are also going through a rough patch: they’ve only picked one point in their last four matches having previously recorded eight consecutive wins. Notably, Fiorentina have scored twelve goals from &lt;strong&gt;set-pieces&lt;/strong&gt; this campaign (only Inter have done better than this), while Monza sit last in this particular ranking (three goals).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;figure data-asset-id=&#34;1093187e-19d3-49a4-b4a4-e27b2f855a2b&#34; data-image-id=&#34;1093187e-19d3-49a4-b4a4-e27b2f855a2b&#34;&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/cb94a435-9a63-40c6-a80b-853be4eec008/Sito_HERO_mon.png&#34; data-asset-id=&#34;1093187e-19d3-49a4-b4a4-e27b2f855a2b&#34; data-image-id=&#34;1093187e-19d3-49a4-b4a4-e27b2f855a2b&#34; alt=&#34;&#34;&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Photo Getty Images)&lt;/p&gt;

The second half of the season begins with an asymmetric schedule compared to the first half: the Torino vs. Juve Derby and Bologna vs. Roma are the big games on this matchday.

Baroni’s Biancocelesti, will look to react in front of their fans after a turbulent run of results.

Como, on the other hand, come into the match in great spirits thanks to an improvement in their performances, which has helped them record eight points in their last six outings. The statistics suggest that both sides are among the best in the league when it comes to dribbles completed and the number of shots following an offensive recovery.

Tactically speaking, neither side excels in offensive pressing: the Bianconeri are fourth from last in offensive recoveries and have scored just one goal this way, while Torino have yet to score after an offensive recovery and are second to last when it comes to ball recoveries in the final third (47).<figure data-asset-id="3c55eb3e-008e-415a-96d7-080cfbf01d0a" data-image-id="3c55eb3e-008e-415a-96d7-080cfbf01d0a"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/718676ee-9ab6-4796-ab36-d16e52d72c0f/Sito_HERO_tor.png" data-asset-id="3c55eb3e-008e-415a-96d7-080cfbf01d0a" data-image-id="3c55eb3e-008e-415a-96d7-080cfbf01d0a" alt=""></figure>San Siro welcomes <a href="https://www.legaseriea.it/en/media/supercoppa/milan-celebrate-8th-supercup-1435ad6cc357b0" data-new-window="true" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">the champions of the EA SPORTS FC Supercup</a> back from Riyadh as well as the new AC Milan Head coach for his first home game. Following on from the historic Supercoppa win, Conceição is chasing another historic milestone: the last AC Milan Coach to win his first three matches in all competitions was Arrigo Sacchi in August 1987. Despite having the best home defence in the league with just five goals conceded in nine matches, the Rossoneri have drawn three of their last four games at the Meazza and need a significant turnaround to move closer to the Champions League spots. Cagliari, fresh off a crucial away win against Monza and recalling their thrilling draw in the first half of the season, will look for a prestigious result. Nicola’s side are one of two sides without a clean sheet away from home this season, but their resilience is a key strength: only Atalanta (eleven) have recorded more points from losing positions than Cagliari (nine).<figure data-asset-id="d9aa523c-23b5-4d9d-ad9a-0b7fc4e702bb" data-image-id="d9aa523c-23b5-4d9d-ad9a-0b7fc4e702bb"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/c8644a9e-86a4-4beb-b8b2-f25c1a19d1ad/Sito_HERO_mil.png" data-asset-id="d9aa523c-23b5-4d9d-ad9a-0b7fc4e702bb" data-image-id="d9aa523c-23b5-4d9d-ad9a-0b7fc4e702bb" alt=""></figure>At the Luigi Ferraris, Genoa host Parma in a crucial match in the battle for survival. The Grifone boast one of the best defensive records in the last nine games, with five clean sheets and just one defeat. They are determined to break their home curse which, alongside Monza, makes them the only other team yet to win a home game this season. Parma, on the other hand, are struggling to find consistency in their performances but have shown signs of improvement in recent weeks and could remain unbeaten in at least three consecutive matches. Both sides will need to contend with their respective challenges: the Rossoblù hold the negative record for goals scored in the first half (four), while the Emiliani have conceded the most goals in the final 30 minutes of play (16).&nbsp;<figure data-asset-id="dad4fe56-f5bb-470a-a7fd-d575757c3c64" data-image-id="dad4fe56-f5bb-470a-a7fd-d575757c3c64"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/9390389c-91c1-4e33-b407-d9d5ff02395f/Sito_HERO_gen.png" data-asset-id="dad4fe56-f5bb-470a-a7fd-d575757c3c64" data-image-id="dad4fe56-f5bb-470a-a7fd-d575757c3c64" alt=""></figure>At the Penzo, struggling Venezia are set to take on high-flying Inter. The Nerazzurri have won their last five league matches, conceding just one goal in the process. Furthermore, Inzaghi’s men have won five consecutive away matches, scoring 18 and shipping no goals at all. Inter thus have the opportunity to record six consecutive Serie A away wins without conceding for the first time in history. However, the Nerazzurri can’t take things for granted against a Venezia side who are unbeaten in three home matches and pose a threat from set-pieces, with ten of their 18 goals having arrived from these situations. On the other hand, Inter are one of three sides who have found the net six times from corners (the highest tally), from which Venezia have conceded the most goals across the division (seven).<figure data-asset-id="a06fb659-8a3c-43dc-994b-a87d1534e21a" data-image-id="a06fb659-8a3c-43dc-994b-a87d1534e21a"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/d1bd29a1-c639-4491-9d2d-3706106dd821/Sito_HERO_venezia.png" data-asset-id="a06fb659-8a3c-43dc-994b-a87d1534e21a" data-image-id="a06fb659-8a3c-43dc-994b-a87d1534e21a" alt=""></figure>Bologna will host Roma in an important clash in the race for Europe. Despite falling to defeat at home to Verona last time out, the Rossoblù sit above the Giallorossi in the league and will face their next opponents in such a position for the third consecutive campaign. Fresh from their derby win, Ranieri’s men will be aiming to carry on their good recent form, record their first away win of the season and continue to climb the table. Italiano’s side are the team who have spent the fewest minutes trailing in home matches, but they’ve also dropped the most points from winning positions on home soil (nine). Roma are the side who have conceded the most goals from direct counter-attacks (six), something they need to address against the Rossoblù, who have scored the most goals in the league from recoveries.<figure data-asset-id="477b300a-d562-400e-b9db-c5159d88c126" data-image-id="477b300a-d562-400e-b9db-c5159d88c126"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/8432e949-977c-4ff7-9479-9142af13d41a/Sito_HERO_bol.png" data-asset-id="477b300a-d562-400e-b9db-c5159d88c126" data-image-id="477b300a-d562-400e-b9db-c5159d88c126" alt=""></figure>Sunday evening will see Napoli and Hellas face off at the Maradona. After their 3-0 win on the opening matchday, Verona could beat the Partenopei twice in a single Serie A season for the first time in history. It’d be a bit of a surprise if they managed to do so: Napoli haven’t lost any of their last 19 home matches against Hellas in Serie A, the Partenopei’s longest ongoing streak against a single opposition side in the Italian top flight. Conte’s Napoli have kept the most clean sheets across the top five European leagues this season (eleven), and they’ve also conceded the fewest number of goals (twelve). However, Zanetti’s men, who have won their last two away games in Serie A, will head into the game with belief, aware that the Azzurri have alternated between losing and winning in their last four league matches at the Maradona.<figure data-asset-id="6f809d9d-f50a-47c4-9d62-f7ddeffdd485" data-image-id="6f809d9d-f50a-47c4-9d62-f7ddeffdd485"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/adf059b2-a2e1-4dd5-b94a-309b93827824/Sito_HERO_nap.png" data-asset-id="6f809d9d-f50a-47c4-9d62-f7ddeffdd485" data-image-id="6f809d9d-f50a-47c4-9d62-f7ddeffdd485" alt=""></figure>The latest round of fixtures will come to an end on Monday, when Fiorentina coach Raffaele Palladino will face his former side in Monza. Bocchetti’s Brianzoli, who sit bottom of the table, are seven points adrift of safety and have lost their last five matches. Monza now need to pull off something historic. Indeed, since Serie A became a 20-team league, only two of the 13 sides who had ten or fewer points after 19 matches then managed to avoid relegation come the end of the campaign: Crotone in 2016/17 (nine points) and Cagliari in 2007/08 (ten). The Viola are also going through a rough patch: they’ve only picked one point in their last four matches having previously recorded eight consecutive wins. Notably, Fiorentina have scored twelve goals from set-pieces this campaign (only Inter have done better than this), while Monza sit last in this particular ranking (three goals).<figure data-asset-id="1093187e-19d3-49a4-b4a4-e27b2f855a2b" data-image-id="1093187e-19d3-49a4-b4a4-e27b2f855a2b"><img src="https://assets-eu-01.kc-usercontent.com:443/6be6dbcf-fd70-012d-ec80-2d3245f5ce6a/cb94a435-9a63-40c6-a80b-853be4eec008/Sito_HERO_mon.png" data-asset-id="1093187e-19d3-49a4-b4a4-e27b2f855a2b" data-image-id="1093187e-19d3-49a4-b4a4-e27b2f855a2b" alt=""></figure>(Photo Getty Images)
