Torino vs. Bologna (Sunday, 11.30am)
Torino head into Sunday's Serie A fixture with Bologna looking for the victory which will move them to within touching distance of the mid-table positions.
The home side currently sit five points adrift of their ninth-placed opponents, who require a win to re-enter the race for the European spots.
We say: Torino 1-2 Bologna
Torino will want to take full advantage of playing on familiar territory on Sunday, particularly having moved clear of the relegation zone. However, we cannot back against the visitors, who we are backing to claim their third away victory in succession.

Hellas Verona vs. Atalanta (Sunday, 2.00pm)
Just days after their European heartbreak, Atalanta BC visit fellow entertainers Hellas Verona, as the free-scoring pair clash at Stadio Bentegodi on Sunday.
While the hosts will be buoyed by their remarkable comeback in last week's Veneto derby, their Lombardy counterparts must bounce back from crashing out of the Champions League if they are to continue a five-match winning run in Serie A.
We say: Hellas Verona 2-2 Atalanta BC
There will surely be goals for either side on Sunday afternoon, as both coaches are committed to taking the initiative and there are set to be several in-form stars on show.
Verona's extra confidence on home soil can help them secure a point against their dangerous opponents, who will perhaps be slow to start after their midweek exertions.

Sassuolo vs. Lazio (Sunday, 5.00pm)
After completing the formality of European progress in midweek, unpredictable Lazio visit the similarly hit-or-miss Sassuolo on Sunday.
The Aquile went through as runners-up in their Europa League group, having previously beaten Sampdoria to sit eighth in the Serie A standings - five points and four places above their weekend opponents.
We say: Sassuolo 2-3 Lazio
It is difficult to see this encounter ending without a flurry of goals, as part of the Azzurri strikeforce which helped Italy win the Euros will be on display - with Immobile and Berardi being in particularly fine form.
Though Lazio have struggled to make a mark away from their Roman headquarters, they can strike on the counter to seal victory - establishing a significant points gap between the two clubs.

Napoli vs. Empoli (Sunday, 5.00pm)
After sealing European progress in dramatic fashion during midweek, Napoli return to Serie A duty with a visit from the league's surprise package Empoli on Sunday.
The teams convene at Stadio Maradona - where the Partenopei host their third successive fixture - with the hosts now two points off the pace at the top, and their 11th-placed visitors seeking an eighth victory of an excellent campaign.
We say: Napoli 2-1 Empoli
Napoli can ride the momentum of their European win on Thursday and overcome the restraints of a depleted squad to secure a precious three points in the league.
Set to be a close-fought encounter - given Empoli have won twice as many as they have lost on the road - the hosts still possess a little extra star quality in the final third, which will prove decisive in the end.

Inter Milan vs. Cagliari (Sunday, 7.45pm)
Though a midweek defeat may have checked their momentum, Inter Milan seek to continue their charge back into the Scudetto race with a home match against Cagliari on Sunday.
Having qualified from the Champions League group stages for the first time in a decade - despite losing to Real Madrid - Inter are back within a point of the Serie A summit following four league wins in a row, while their 18th-placed visitors toil against the drop once again.
We say: Inter Milan 3-0 Cagliari
Cagliari may have stiffened their resolve of late - conceding only twice in their last three outings - but are set to be picked apart by a superior attacking force when they visit San Siro.
As Inter continue their defence of the championship in free-scoring style, it will be a matter of 'how many?' rather than 'if' for a dominant home side.
