Live Serie A – Del Piero signs new contract with Juventus
Posted by: | Comments
Alessandro Del Piero Juventus captain and one of the best Italian midfielders in the last 20 years have signed a new one year deal with his club. He participated in winning five Serie A titles, Coppa Italia and Champions League titles. Del Piero was also a World Cup winner with Italy squad in Germany 2006. With his signature in a new contract he proves he still wants to win trophies. According to the experienced midfielder, settling the deal with the club was an easy process: “It wasn’t difficult to reach an agreement. There wasn’t that much to discuss. What needed to have been done was done. We chose today to do it and it is a nice day.”
Despite his fantastic success with the club, he believes he still has more to achieve with Juventus: “This team and this club should always have the maximum ambition and it is right to always think about winning,” he said.
Even now when he is a football veteran, Del Piero says he still shares the similar passion for the game as he did from the first day at the club: “The sensations are excellent, beautiful, just like they were in 1993. I’m happy to be here because as I have always said, I wanted to play for another year. The passion and love with which I train and play has helped me a lot and will continue to help me.”
Del Piero is a kind of player that makes a difference on the pitch and the one that gives fine example to his teammates, especially the young ones. According to Juventus president Andrea Agnelli Del Piero’s desire to stay at the club and help them in the next season that should be the season of redemption for the club, made him and everyone at the club delightful.
Juventus is aiming the spot in UEFA Europa League next season, and to achieve that they must win Chievo on Sunday and to hope that Roma will lose to Milan tonight. For Serie A tips and Serie A odds check out at: footbetting.co.uk.
Live Serie A – Milan wants both titles in Serie A and Coppa Italia
Posted by: | Comments
Milan’s coach Massimiliano Allegri admitted he is aiming the Coppa Italia even when his team is only a point away of winning the Serie A title. On Milan’s trip to Stadio Olimpico, a draw would be enough for them to seal the Scudetto with two games remaining to play. Allegri is not hiding he is also focused on Coppa Italia semi-final second-leg match against Palermo: “Tuesday’s game in Palermo will be very important seeing as it will allow us to reach the final. My decisions tomorrow will be made with the Cup game in mind, especially my choices in midfield.”
The first leg at the San Siro ended up with a 2-2 draw. Even if it is very much possible he will shuffle the line-up against Roma, Allegri points out that Montella’s team must not be underestimated: “We’ll be up against a side who will be very motivated to play an important game. They were a Scudetto contender themselves. They have an important chance to reach the Champions League, especially after Lazio lost last weekend. Roma are a strong team and Francesco Totti is in great form. To win, we’ll need to play the perfect game. We need just a point and we may not even need that in the end. It will be an incredible feeling, an important satisfaction for this group.”
If Milan lose to Roma, and Fiorentina upsets Inter, Rossonerri will claim the title. Allegri has all four strikers on the rooster because Zlatan Ibrahimovic returns after his three match suspension and Alexandre Pato has recovered from injury.

Live Serie A betting odds tips results and previews – 07-05-2011
Posted by: | CommentsIn Italy all eyes are directed to Serie A leaders Milan. Roma will host first placed team on Saturday.
Winning the Serie A odds for Milan are very good. They only need to gather one point so even in theory no one could prevent them winning the Scudetto. If they show the half of their possibilities, they will take the victory in this match and celebrate the title. Bet on Milan or on a draw in this tie.
Inter plays at home match against Fiorentina and by giving their best they will try to win and stay on the second place. Napoli should have no trouble to achieve what odds are saying, and that means they should win. Bet on Inter and bet on Napoli.
The most interesting in Serie A will be to see which teams will provide the spot in Europe next season. Lazio and Udinese in their clash could decide on who will be playing qualifications for the Champions League. Both teams lost two in the row and it is hard to determine who will win the three points. I would prefer to bet on Udinese in this match.
If Roma lose to Milan on Saturday, Juventus will do their best to achieve victory against Chievo in the last match on Monday evening. Bet on Juventus.

Live Serie A Betting Odds Tips Results and Previews – Round 31
Posted by: | Comments
All eyes are pointed to Giuseppe Meazza/San Siro stadium where two great city rivals, Milan and Inter, will play one of the most anticipated matches of the season. It is very possible that this match could decide the Serie A winner for this season. Inter is only two points behind Milan and if they win on Saturday night, they will be one point clear in front of Milan on Serie A table. All in all, Milan is in pretty bad shape lately as they were knocked out of the Champions League early at the hands of Tottenham. They have a goals trouble since they scored only one goal in their last three games which they failed to win. On the other side, Inter have failed to win in only three Serie A matches this year and scores many goals. As any derby match between the city rivals this match is special and the final outcome is impossible to predict. However, at the moment Inter plays better football than Milan and therefore they have better odds. Bet on Inter.
Napoli could potentially use Inter’s possible win or a draw to grab the second place. They play against Lazio on Sunday noon and there is a great possibility for them to be only a point away from the first place, in case they win. Lazio will be hoping they can take the victory and that Udinese can lose to Lecce, but according to my opinion, that is very unlikely. Bet on Napoli and bet on Udinese.
Juventus desperately needs three points from a match against Roma. They had a poor season so far as they exited UEFA Europa League in group stages and in the Serie A they are trying to catch up a pace with their Sunday night opponents Roma. Juventus takes 7th place on Serie A table with five points behind Roma which takes the place that leads to the UEFA Europa League next season. Roma play bad at home and Juventus on their away matches. Both teams will surely go for a win, but I believe that Juventus can get three points on their travel to Rome. Bet on Juventus.
The most interesting match scheduled for this is the clash between city rivals Roma and Lazio at the Olympico Stadium. Roma was kicked out of the Champions League by Shakhtar Donetsk. They lost two matches by conceding six goals and scored only two. However, new coach Vincenzo Montella has some ideas on how to bring back the team on the right track. Lazio is not playing too good on the side and Roma had good results at home until the last month when they failed to win in three matches at home. Now, Montella has a chance to bring back the winning mentality among the players in the best opportunity for something like that, the city derby against their biggest rivals. I would prefer to bet on Roma in this match.

In Serie A Scudetto race is just worming up. Leaders Milan had a really poor display last weekend in a 1:0 loss at the hands of Palermo the team which was force to change coach after 7:0 defeat against Udinese a few rounds earlier. It looks like Milan suffered a true shock after disappointing Champions League early exit after duels against Tottenham. This was Milan’s third game without a win in a row, which is their worst run of results this season. Now Inter and Napoli are only two and three points away from Milan at the top of the Serie A table.
City derby between Milan and Inter is scheduled for the next round of Serie A and Inter will welcome that match with only two points behind their greatest rivals Milan.

Lazio defeated Cesena thanks to an early goal scored by Zarate, who managed to score after three months. Fiorentina was able to play only a draw against Roma. Viola had a two times lead to play only 2:2 at the full time. Totti scored twice for Roma. Juventus finally defeated someone.

Ibrahimovic banned for three matches!
Posted by: | CommentsMilan’s star striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic will miss crucial derby with Inter, after receiving a three-game suspension for punching Bari’s Marco Rossi.
During Milan’s shock 1:1 draw at San Siro, Ibrahimovic was shown a straight red card after Bari’s defender marked him off a cross. Swedish international was frustrated, as he didn’t score a goal from a free play in seven Serie A matches, and he punched Rossi after the ball was cleared. The referee saw this and sent him off to the locker room early.
A statement from Serie A’s disciplinary committee says: “Three-match ban for Zlatan Ibrahimovic of Milan for irregular behavior after having hit an opposition player in the abdomen, making him fall to the ground without injury consequences.”
Thanks to this suspension, Ibrahimovic should miss games against Palermo, Fiorentina and Inter. Ibrahimovic is the leading scorer for the Milan with 14 goals, but has been struggling with form since February. Milan are the Serie A leaders but are facing a strong challenge from Inter as Leonardo’s team closed to five points behind and there are still nine games to go until the end of the Serie A campaign.

Serie A leaders Milan made proper embarrassment to themselves as they played a poor equalizer to the last placed Bari at San Siro. Either the European wounds didn’t heal or they simply relaxed too much having in mind the fact they are playing against the Serie A bottom team. Either way, Bari surprisingly took the lead in 39th minute. The game was hard for Allegri’s players, but after Zlatan Ibrahimovic was sent off for punching the opponent, things got even harder. Substitute Antonio Cassano took care his team doesn’t take another slap after exiting Champions League. He scored equalizing goal and Milan stayed clear at the top of Serie A with a five points ahead in front of the city rivals Inter, which also equalized against Brescia and are playing a Champions League round of 16 second leg duel against Bayern Munchen on Tuesday night.
Roma managed to take a victory over their greatest rivals Lazio. Totti scored twice in this important match for Roma which is now one step closer to Champions League spot. They are now only two points behind Lazio. Udinese also took their chances and after their 4:0 win over Cagliari they are at the fourth place now. Udinese plays their best football and perhaps the best in Serie A at the moment as they didn’t lose since the beginning of 2011. They have nine wins from 12 matches and only three draws. In only three matches they scored less than two goals. Francesco Guidolin’s team is in a fantastic run.

In Serie A match between Brescia and Inter has opened round 29. When the second placed team in Serie A had a chance to secure the fifth win in a row, they slipped it and lost points against the second team from the bottom of the table. Eto’o has brought Inter to lead in 18th minute and everything looked like Leonardo’s team is going toward new win, but five minutes before the last whistle Caracciolo scored an equalizer. Things could have gone really bad for Inter if Caracciolo had scored from the penalty, but Julio Cesar was able to defend his goal. In the last two minutes Cordoba and Caracciolo earned to be sent off, so both teams ended match with ten men on the pitch.
Thanks to Inter’s blunder, Milan has the opportunity to increase their lead by seven points if they secure home win against last placed Bari. After disappointing drop out from the Champions League Allegri’s team has a chance for a quick recovery against the worst team in Serie A. Rossoneri are definitely a favorites, so bet on Milan.
Fallen Juventus is playing against strugglers Cesena. Bianconeri are looking for their form and the best opportunity for the team to earn self-confidence and score many goals is in matches against teams like Cesena. Juventus is a favorite, but if the crisis among them prevails again, they could lose this one easily.
The most interesting match scheduled for this is the clash between city rivals Roma and Lazio at the Olympico Stadium. Roma was kicked out of the Champions League by Shakhtar Donetsk.

Live Schalke vs Valencia result and review 09-03-2011
Posted by: | CommentsSchalke secured quarter-finals alongside Barcelona, Tottenham and Shakhtar Donetsk.
When it was announced that one of the pairs of the Champions League Round of 16 are Schalke and Valencia it didn’t sound quite attractive. However, these two managed to display 180 minutes of fantastic and exciting football.
After 1:1 at the Mestaya and 3:1 at the Schalke Arena, perhaps Felix Magat’s squad managed to use their chances and here they are in the Champions League quarter-finals. It looks like they are in really good form when we talk about cup competitions. In last night match, Valencia took the lead thanks to Ricardo Costa’s goal. The half-time was near when Farfan scored an equalizer. In 52nd minute, young Swiss international Gavranovic, who made a perfect debut in the Champions League, scored for 2:1. From that moment Schalke was oriented on counter attacks, while Valencia tried to do everything they could to score. After many missed opportunities by Schalke’s players, Farfan showed his teammates how to score. In the last minute he took a chance of one of their counter attacks and used it for final score 3:1.

Live Tottenham vs Milan result and review 09-03-2011
Posted by: | CommentsTottenham and Schalke secured quarter-finals.
Milan is out of Champions League. Serie A leaders failed to score against Tottenham in London and English side team secured their place in last eight of the Champions League. Milan was mostly attacking, while Tottenham was able to resist and from counter attacks create a few opportunities. The best chance Milan had when the ball was kicked out from the home team goal line by William Galas. After that moment Milan tried really hard, but their efforts was in vain.
Overall Milan players and coach believe they were the better team. They were disappointed with the outcome, but they see comfort in Serie A and a chance to win it as they are the current leaders. The fact that Tottenham had practically only one shot on Milan’s goal in 180 minutes says that you just need to use your opportunities. Harry Redknapp was satisfied with his team’s performance last night and as his players, he believes they can win any one at home and they are capable for some great things in the Champions League this season.
