Today is the last round of the 2003-04 Italian championship season. Three teams are fighting for fourth place, with "Inter" in the best position to secure a spot in the next season's Champions League with a victory. Meanwhile, the battle for survival in the league is more interesting - "Modena" and "Empoli" are tied on points, but their paths cross with teams fighting for fourth place, while "Perugia" has one point less, but will play against the absolute outsiders "Ancona". Other matches, where Marius Stankevicius's "Brescia", "Bologna" and "Juve" will play, will be interesting for a different reason - saying goodbye to legendary strikers and coach Marcelo Lippi of "Serie-A".
