Tomorrow the 26th round of the Italian championship begins. Two matches will feature teams from the top of the league standings.
Start: 19:00 Lithuania time.
The troubled Italian champion Turin's "Juventus" will play away against "Udinese". "Juve" has already lost three very important matches in a row, and it seems that they may end this season without any titles. One of the reasons for their recent poor performance is the flood of injuries.
In tomorrow's match, Juventus will be without Trezeguet, Iuliano, Zambrotta, Del Piero, and there are doubts about Montero and Birindelli, while Conte is suspended.
"Udinese" is currently heading towards their goal - qualifying for the next season's UEFA Cup. Last week they earned a point in Rome against "Lazio", equalizing the result in the last minute through Vincenzo Iaquinta. Currently injured players in the "Udinese" team are Pieri and Sensini. The young talent Muntari will miss the match as he is suspended.
Start: 21:30 Lithuania time.
The league leader, "Milan", who has a 7-point lead over second-placed "Roma", has been unstoppable recently: as shown by three consecutive wins against "Lazio", "Sparta" and "Juventus", as well as a recent victory in the Milan derby against "Inter".
Nevertheless, "Parma" coach Cesare Prandelli believes that his team can win in these matches. He probably remembers the first round match at the "Tardini" stadium, when "Parma" was the only team this season to keep a clean sheet against "Milan" and played a goalless draw.
In the match, Milan will be without Nesta and Brocchi; meanwhile, "Parma" will be missing Morfeo, Seric and Cardone, but defender Blasi may finally play, as his suspension for nandrolone use has ended.
