Saturday's Serie A predictions including Napoli vs. Inter Milan

Atalanta vs. Venezia (Saturday, 2.00pm)

Still vying for their first-ever Scudetto, serial overachievers Atalanta BC will host relegation-threatened Venezia on Saturday.

Bouncing back from a calamitous Champions League loss, La Dea hit Empoli for five last weekend, while their visitors slipped six points from Serie A safety despite avoiding defeat.

We say: Atalanta BC 3-0 Venezia

To be considered title contenders, Atalanta simply must win, as they next face Juventus and Inter during a six-game streak against top-half opposition.

With one of Europe's worst away records, Venezia are unlikely to put up much resistance, as their slump towards Serie B goes on.

Napoli vs. Inter Milan (Saturday, 5.00pm)

Kicking off March with a Scudetto showdown, Serie A title rivals Napoli and Inter Milan will clash at Stadio Maradona on Saturday evening.

Last week, Inter stole top spot as their immediate predecessors as Italian champions stumbled again - the Partenopei are now four games without a win.

We say: Napoli 0-1 Inter Milan

Not only do Napoli seem to be running out of steam, having arguably overachieved so far this season, but they also have grim recent record against Inter.

The Nerazzurri are far from their fluent best either, but they have scored 17 more goals than their hosts to this point, averaging over two per game away from home.

Udinese vs. Parma (Saturday, 7.45pm)

Both winners last week, mid-table Udinese and Serie A survival hopefuls Parma will start March by meeting on Saturday evening.

While the Friulani overcame an unseemly penalty-kick squabble to beat Lecce last time out, their visitors began life under new management by beating local rivals.

We say: Udinese 2-1 Parma

While Parma have picked up just one away win all season, Udinese have scored three times in both of their last two home games.

Full of confidence - and with several attacking threats to call on - the Bianconeri should prevail, potentially dropping their opponents back into the bottom three.
