The 12.30pm match at the Olimpico sees Ranieri's team face Pecchia's in what appears to be a battle for survival. The day ends with the dispute between Monza and Juventus, with Nesta needing a reaction from his players
The only possible result for Ranieri is victory, given that Parma are only one point behind and the relegation zone is just two points away. The Giallorossi coach has decided to field Dybala and El Shaarawy in support of Dovbyk, while his rival Pecchia focuses on Hernani as a central attacking midfielder behind Bonny.

Nesta doesn't have much margin for error. And to get an important result today against Juventus he should use his most reliable eleven.

Turati; Izzo, Marì, Carboni; Birindelli, Bianco, Bondo, Kyriakopoulos; Caprari, Mota; Maric. All. Nesta.
