With one seeking Serie A survival and the other aiming for a place in Europe, Cagliari host Fiorentina on Monday.
The home side sit just above the drop zone with six games to play, while the Viola – who have just booked their spot in another Conference League semi-final – are fighting for a return to continental competition.
We say: Cagliari 0-1 Fiorentina
Although Fiorentina have seen their away form dip over the past few months, they should be capable of beating low-scoring Cagliari in Sardinia.
With several game-changers in their ranks, the Viola will surely unlock the Rossoblu’s back line at least once.

After suffering a painful exit from Europe, Lazio will try to bounce back in Serie A, as the top-four contenders visit mid-table Genoa on Monday.
Beaten on penalties in the Europa League quarter-finals, the Rome club are intent on qualifying for UEFA’s top competition next season – but they must play catch-up, having won just one of their last five league games.
We say: Genoa 1-1 Lazio
Surely bearing the scars of their Europa League loss, Lazio could be vulnerable on Monday evening – particularly as Genoa are so tough to beat.
Yet, the Biancocelesti have scored a league-leading 18 goals in the final 15 minutes this season – six coming after the 90th minute – and with no fewer than 16 strikes via substitutes they should at least stave off defeat.

Both battling for different objectives at either end of the Serie A standings, Parma and Juventus will clash at Stadio Tardini on Monday.
While the Gialloblu are fighting for survival, Juve aim to secure a top-four finish and salvage something from another below-par campaign.
We say: Parma 0-1 Juventus
Having cast off the shackles, Juventus are finally finding some form, and they should have too much firepower for Parma to withstand.
Though the Gialloblu have tightened up under new management, they sometimes struggle to score goals – and that could yet cost them a place in Serie A.

Separated by one place in the Serie A table, Torino welcome Udinese to Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino, aiming to create separation from the visitors in Easter Monday’s gameweek 33 contest.
History is undoubtedly on the home team’s side, with the Bull winning 14 and drawing six of the previous 26 top-flight meetings with the Friulians.
We say: Torino 1-1 Udinese
Four of Torino’s five wins on home turf this season have been by one-goal margins, highlighting the close nature of those victories over Atalanta (2-1), Como (1-0), AC Milan (2-1) and Empoli (1-0).
While the Maroons will expect three points again in this fixture, we anticipate Udinese’s battling qualities on the road could see the Friulians scrape out a draw in Turin and avoid a third straight loss on their travels and fifth consecutive disappointment overall.
