It's true, Parma was declared bankrupt, at that time Parma tried to survive without an owner for several seasons. I didn't really follow Parma news/updates afterwards, but AFAIK, it is owned by a company from the United States. Returning to Serie A after falling to Serie D when it went bankrupt, i think this is amazing achievement. After all, Parma is a club that has a sweet history in the past and become one of the big four in Serie A. Lucky for them can survive few years without owner.

De Rossi is currently faced with a difficult situation, the pressure they are under is quite heavy to break into the top four, and Roma also have to divide their focus to other matches in the Europa League. Being 4 points behind Bologna can still be reduced by appearing consistent, but this really depends on Bologna next opponent. Roma failed to compete with Bologna directly, and in the last match Napoli again hampered De Rossi efforts to bring his squad to finish in the Champions League zone. Apart from that, Roma position itself is actually quite threatened by Atalanta, this is the toughest test for De Rossi since taking over the club from Jose Mourinho.

Inter milano was a better side in their match with Torino, despite that Torino struggle to get a draw in the first half of the game, inter maintain an impressive play in the second half, it earned them the 3 Points in the match, Torino use to be be a good side and an obstacle to many big teams in the Italian serie A but I can tell you that this season has not been very smooth for them, though inter is not their match this season but generally Torino has flopped.
I somuch congratulate inter for this winning, I think with this singular act of theirs, the league will be theirs soon, a good team remains a good team any time any day.

I think Salernitana are definitely going to be relegated because they're really behind and have no chance of getting out of the relegation zone. But the interesting thing about the Serie B team that will be promoted to Serie A nextseason is about Parma. Because anyway, as far as I remember that Parma was rumored to be almost bankrupt at that time and a lot of debt, so Parma was dropped furtherdown from Serie B. But at the moment, I'm surprised Parma are the top team in Serie B although it's not certain that Parma will be promoted to Serie A next season, but I hope Parma will succeed.

Juventus will definitely retain their place in the Champions League zone, this has already become their main task long before the end of the season. Milan is out of reach for them, and Bologna is also losing a lot of points, but their task is the same as Juventus’s, just to stay in the top 5. Roma is in a difficult position, although they look very good now, but at the moment everything depends on Atalanta, since they have played one game less and can bypass Roma, the motivation is too high to miss this opportunity.

Their focus is still divided with the Coppa Italia match so it is very difficult for Atalanta to catch up even though they are only two points from AS Roma, it seems there is no problem in catching up to maintain the Europa League zone, at least Atalanta can be able to end the season well and at least they are still a candidate European League even though Lazio and Fiorentia are still Atalanta's shadows to this day..

Florentina surprised me with such fire I saw in them, it is not an easy thing, I never expected such a number of goal in that match, if we put the past records into the lime light, we will understand that both teams are not more sophisticated than each other but the recent performance of sassuolo is not that encouraging despite that they are visiting team, I expected them to fight back no matter the situation, allowing florentina to win them with such a number of goal is not ideal.

As you said, their back was not what spectators expected from a team like that, florentina utilized their opportunities due to sassuolo lapses, the only record that was kept in that match by sassuolo was score atleast a goal in the game as for their performance and quest for goal i will say that it is zero.

Genoa vs Cagliari

Both teams has same statistics because in the last 5 matches they can gets 1 win each and 1 loses and if i am not mistaken both teams as promotion team from last season so they were hard struggling to survive at Serie A but if we see based on the current position on League Table Genoa position seems quite safe because they can occupy 11th place with collect 39 points and for Cagliari i was impress to see their recent performance because although they didn't gets the winning results from 2 latest matches but Cagliari has successfully to gets draw results from Juventus and Inter Milan so they cannot be underestimate

Both teams has been met on November last year at that time Cagliari can win with narrow scores and for this match Cagliari conditions is not really good because some of their players were got injured and the players such as Alberto Dossena, Nicolas Viola and Zito Luvumbo potentially will be absense and for Genoa Mattia Bani and Ruslan Malinovsky probably will not available for today match and for betting options considering the recent conditions from both teams who looks equal i think potentially this match will ended to draw and i can see the odds for draw is quite high @3.10 or other options just like both teams to scores i think good pick

A ticket to champions league is something i think is really going to be achievable by Roma this season, although they have gotten tough fixtures ahead thst my actually want to hinder them from been able to get the qualifications but then they can possibly get to, still qualify if only they can get  a win a d a draw without having to loose my of both games till the end of the season but then they are very likely to maintain their position.

De Rossi have actually tried in that he has been able to get Roma to this point on the table after they have appeared like they weren't even going to get to qualify for the champions league due to their form and their performance all along this season, they have actually gotten much better with Rossi as compared to the way they were when they still had Mourinho as their head coach but then he did better with them last season so it were still possible if he has time he would have improved but the team didn't have the luxury of time to invest in such as at then.

In the remaining weeks if the leagues Roma will be strained a little considering they have to face both their domestic league games nd the Europa too where they are hoping to get to the finals of the league and probably hope for a trophy from the Europa, it's going to be tough ahead he just have to come up with a strategy that will reduce the fatigue of the team so they be able to sth optimal all along.

Fiorentina crushed Sassuolo with a score of 5-1 and that was the biggest win for Fiorentina in the last 5 matches. In this match, it was clear that Fiorentina really dominated the game and Sassuolo's defense looked weak so they conceded very easily. On the other hand, Fiorentina also still wants to appear in European competition next season but they have a 5 point difference from Lazio if they want to be in this competition.

However, I am quite sure that Fiorentina can still penetrate that place considering that there are still 3 more matches left before Serie A ends. Currently, Fiorentina is also still fighting in the quarterfinals of the conference league and of course they will also target to win the title later. For Sassuolo, this defeat means they are still stuck in the red zone and it feels very difficult for them to escape the clutches of the red zone if they don't win in the remaining matches.

Atalanta opponent in their next match is a work over go them, because Saleritana is a weak club that gives all moves all her opponents three points. Atalanta is too strong to draw that match, and that makes it more easy for them to win Saleritana.

Roma on the other hand have being putting up good performances since the new manager De Rossi arrived in the club as manager. They should be able to win Juventus, who are not consistent a d unpredictable currently. I know that Juventus is a strong side, but they might not be able to bring out the best in them on the match day.

Watch out for Atalanta; they may have a major edge over Roma for 5th. Success depends on momentum, and Atalanta's schedule helps. They're playing Salernitana next. Yikes. Simply enough, Salernitana had a horrible season. Atalanta has a fantastic opportunity to win three points. Roma is in a separate boat. They're playing Juventus, which is a different animal. Do not expect an easy win. Atalanta may win if the time is good before their match with Roma. Serie A drama shines when the table is on edge

If Roma fails to get their chance into the next Champions League, I don't think we should consider that as a failure of De Rossi's first season in the club, remember that he did not manage the club from the start of the season, he took the charge after Mourinho dismissed with the club. Roma is behind Bologna by three points difference, I don't think Roma will get their chance of playing in the next Champions League because we know how strong Bologna has been playing from the start of the season, they maintain their winning ways. Look at their last game, even with the red card, they managed to draw against Udinese.

Roma will face difficult challenges in their next three games, Roma can defeat Juventus because their performance hasn't been good lately, while Atalanta will be a tough opponent since they are also fighting to make it to the next Europa League. If the Champions League position is difficult for Roma to get into, at least they should maintain their current position to qualify for the next Europa competition.

Atalanta still has the opportunity to displace AS Roma who are above them, because Atalanta still has one match remaining which can make them sit in fifth place by displacing AS Roma who are above them, these two teams have appeared very strong in the last few weeks, and secondly This team Atalanta and AS Roma still have a big chance of getting tickets to the Europa League final, both of them currently have a good mentality, Atalanta just beat Liverpool in the Europa League which is a good result they have got this season.

In the remaining matches, AS Roma will visit Atalanta's headquarters to determine who is the best or who will finish in fifth place. If we discuss the performance of this team, they have the same strengths, not much different in attack and defense, I think in Their next meeting at home to Atalanta will prove who will establish themselves in fifth place. This will be a fierce competition because both teams are currently in top form.

It's true, in the last 5 matches, Juventus were only able to win 1 time, and 1 defeat and the other 3 ended with a draw score which they got in a row. Meanwhile, As Roma has a better record, winning 2 times, losing 1 and ending in a draw. But the problem is that even though Juventus has a record that is not better, they are still Juventus, which is one of the good clubs this season.

Juventus will also definitely want to change their record of consecutive draws by winning this difficult match. They are also still threatened by Bologna, who are only 2 points behind in the standings, because if they lose this match, it is very likely that Bologna will be able to take over Juventus' position. The reason is that in the same week Bologna will also face Torino, who on paper are clearly superior to Torino.

Roma have risk to lose the fifth position even before a direct match with Atalanta. With any scenario, that direct match will be very important for both clubs to get a fifth position in Serie A. With their quality that is similar and with their performances recently, it is a risky match for both of them. In this competition, now Atalanta can control it and if they win their rest matches, and only need a draw in a match with Roma, they will beat Roma and take a fifth position in Serie A.

Their performances in Serie A will seriously be affected by their matches in Europa League because two semi final matches will require a lot of inputs from them.

When Inter have won, then Salernitana seems to be the first team to drop to Serie B. Udinese and Sassuolo seem to continue to fight to survive because their gap with 17th place is very thin. So they have a chance of survival, but it's heavy. It seems that Parma are strong candidates for promotion to Serie A, they may be accompanied by Como and Venezia. For the others, it seems that Milan, Juventus and Bologna will be with Inter to the UCL. It seems that Bologna became a surprise team to make it into the top 4.

Well, that scenario is also possible. Where Roma will be overtaken by Atalanta in the coming week. Because it is very clear that Roma has a tough opponent, namely Juventus. But lately Juventus has always had difficulty taking advantage of the opportunities they get. So Roma's hopes of winning the match are also quite good. But yeah, playing against Juventus will still be different from playing against Napoli. Yesterday Roma could only hold Napoli to a draw. And that's not a very good result. So if Roma has difficulty against Napoli then Roma will have even more difficulty when facing Juventus. but for the coming week I prefer to continue to support Roma's victory. Because it seems like being the host can make this team much more confident when playing.

Meanwhile for Atalanta vs Salernitana. Maybe Atalanta will indeed get full points. And that means Roma also have to win if they don't want to be overtaken by Atalanta.

The match between Atlanta vs AS Roma will take place in Week 36 of Serie A, so there is still 1 more match before they actually meet. Well, here lies the advantage for Atalanta in my opinion, namely in week 35. The reason is that AS Roma will face Juventus and Atalanta will face an easier opponent by facing Salernitana. Facing Juventus is clearly not an easy thing for AS Roma, even though they are playing at their home ground, Juventus is a strong club, as evidenced by the 3rd position they currently occupy.

I'm not sure AS Roma can win that match even though their chances are still there and maybe they will only achieve a draw. Meanwhile, I think Atalanta will be able to win the match against Salernitana, because their opponent is clearly easier, who is at the bottom of the standings at the moment and has already confirmed that they will not be in Serie A next season. I think Atalanta has a very good chance of taking AS Roma's position.

I actually saw that draw coming because it's not easy to defeat a team like Roma by that number of goals and not get fatigued after it. They were even lucky to secure a point because in the game, Udinese seemed desperate to salvage something of the game for the team and this is understandable that they came all out with guns blazing since they are relegation bound and they would be hoping to at least win or draw their remaining games to at least escape the drop zone.
Atalanta has been a force to reckon with in the Serie A but for some time have been off and on. I'd say they regained their winning streak after embarrassing Liverpool and if you observed they have been on a joyride ever since that encounter. I didn't see Empoli to be much of a problem to a team gunning for a slot at the champions league and I'd be careful if I were Bologna since any slip can cause them their coveted spot by either Roma or Atalanta but I won't worry my head over Roma since the clubs seems a bit like they are struggling at the moment.
