For this round and after two clashes for the Italian championship without having suffered defeat, we can say that started in a positive way. On the other hand, the cast arrives despondent after the set of the two matches have been overtaken by Copenhagen in the penalties by the playoffs of the Europa League after the duel finished again in 0-0. In this round the squad must be aligned by coach G. Gasperini in the 3-4-3, aiming for defensive consistency and attacks also through the sides. In this drawing we highlight A. Gómez, M.

Maran should align his squad in 4-3-1-2, aiming at defensive organization and the exits by the sides, seeking to favor the three most advanced pieces, namely N. Barella, L. Pavoletti and Diego Farias, all of whom must occupy these three positions. Already the main finisher of this cast is the already mentioned and striker L. Pavoletti, player who has so far scored two goals in this season's start of the Italian.
