  1. As for the game later, going by the two derbies from last season, tonights could be a cracker. Inter haven't been that impressive this season, despite their position in the table. Milan have been shite, but could see them raising their game for this - there is a good side in there somewhere. Don't care who wins really, just hoping for goals!

  2. Roma pump Benevento 4-0 in the 'early' kick off, with the help of two own goals. Roma could have scored more and Benevento were worth a goal or two themselves. The game was pretty end-to-end throughout, although Benevento gave up a little after the 4th. Juventus v Fiorentina and Lazio v Napoli tonight should be great.

  3. Didn't catch the game, but Lazio are looking like a good bet to push for one of the Champions League places. They were superb when they beat Juve in the Super Coppa, and when they could have caved after blowing a 2 goal lead, they instead went right up the park and won it. They also thumped Milan, ground out a last minute win at Chievo, came from behind twice to win in Europe on Thursday, and tonight still managed to get three points despite Genoa pegging them back twice. The only blotch on their season so far was the opening day draw with SPAL, a game they really should have won. The home game against Napoli on Wednesday should be a cracker.

  4. Parma's 100% record gone after losing 1-0 at home to Brescia. Watched the first half which was pretty awful - this is quickly becoming a theme of Parma games this season. Game was played in pretty poor conditions which were bordering on ridiculous by the end. Very large Brescia away support at the game, too. Huge difference to the tiny away supports they got in Serie C/D, with the odd exception.

    8 goals and 41 shots in the Pescara game, looks like they'll be plenty of fun again this year.

    First three games: 5-1, 4-2 and a 3-3 tonight with Frosinone, after they had lead 3-0 at HT. Across their 5 games in league and cup this season, their matches are averaging 6 goals a game. Zeman is some boy.

  6. Two wins from two as Parma win 1-0 at Novara. Caught the last half hour and they were absolutely shite. Had one half chance but spent the rest of the time time-wasting, sitting deep and playing for free-kicks (and by f**k were there a lot). Novara at the very least deserved a point based on what I seen.

    However, a win is a win, and they are one of only four sides to have a 100% record so far - Perugia, Frosinone and Carpi being the other three. Speaking of Perugia, they followed up their 5-1 win last week by beating Pescara 4-2. Of the other promoted sides, Cremonese got their first win, beating Avellino 3-1 and Venezia ended up with the same result as last week, a 0-0 draw. No wins and no goals so far, get it up them.

    Table after two games:

    They look like they'd be a good enough shout to make the play-offs, wouldn't expect them to push for the title, anyway. Looked relatively solid at the back and created enough going forward, although the quality was lacking at the end, so scoring enough goals might be an issue. Hard to judge too much given they were playing another side just promoted themselves. The squad is also a bit on the old side - Baraye and Dezi were the only players under 27 last night who started, and even then they're 25, so they might not have the legs to compete at the top end of the table over the course of a 42 game season. I imagine they'll finish top half, maybe sneaking in to the play-offs, then push on next year for a title bid if they don't make it up through the play-offs.

    Fabio Ceravolo has signed from Benevento. Scored 20 goals in Serie B last season, so hopefully more of the same this year. Doesn't look like Alessandro Matri will be joining though, he's been linked over the last week or so, but seems the deal was dependant on Sassuolo getting Zapata from Napoli, who's gone to Samp.

    SPAL score in the 94th minute to beat Udinese. Quite a good goal to win it.

    Aye it was a great goal. Watched this over any of the other games just to get a look at SPAL, they looked pretty decent. Udinese despite coming from 2 down, weren't very good. Cracker of a penalty from Thereau, though.  

    All of tonights scores:

    Milan 2-1 Cagliari
    Chievo 1-2 Lazio
    Crotone 0-0 Verona
    Fiorentina 1-2 Sampdoria
    Napoli 3-1 Atalanta
    SPAL 3-2 Udinese

    Juventus, Inter, Milan, Sampdoria and Napoli all on 6 points going in to the break.
