Serie A preview

Inter closest since 88-89

AFP, Rome
Inter Milan travel to Rome to play Lazio at the Olympic Stadium on Sunday knowing victory will crown them champions of Italy for the first time since 1988-9.
But Inter know any slip-up against Lazio will give second-placed Juventus the chance to steal the crown by beating Udinese while in the less likely event of both Inter and Juve failing champions AS Roma could yet retain their title by beating Torino.
It is the fourth consecutive year the Scudetto has been decided on the last day and the second time in two years three clubs have been in contention on the final day.
It is even possible the Scudetto could be decided by a play-off if two teams finish level on points but going into Sunday it is Inter who are firm favourites.
They face a Lazio team that has a mathematical but improbable chance of qualifying for the Champions League.
But Lazio have looked a demoralised outfit this season and coach Alberto Zaccheroni is set to depart in the summer with former playing favourite Roberto Mancini due to take the reins.
Inter's Uruguayan forward Alvaro Recoba made a rather unsubtle attempt to influence Lazio to undermine Roma's faint hopes this week when he said he would deliberately underperform if he knew an Inter victory would help AC Milan win the title.
Up to 40,000 Inter fans are expected to travel to Rome for the match that they expect to see them win the Scudetto for the first time since a team coached by Giovanni Trapattoni and starring German midfielder Lothar Matthaus lifted the prize in 1988-9.
Top striker Christian Vieri, with 21 goals this season, hopes to recover
from a knock to face the team he left to join Inter for a then world record fee of 49 million dollars in 1999.
Vieri will play alongside Ronaldo who has shown signs of returning to something like his best form in recent weeks.
The Brazilian is returning to the Olympic Stadium to play against Lazio for the first time since the disastrous night on April 12, 2000 where he ruptured knee ligaments, putting him out of the game for 18 months.
The 25-year-old two-time former World Player of the Year will be hoping for a sweeter memory this time.
But Inter coach Hector Cuper and his men know any slip-up could gift the title to Juve who visit a Udinese team that has even less incentive than Lazio as they have already assured themselves of survival.
Cuper will be hoping to lay the tag
of 'nearly man' that has dogged him since he arrived in Europe from Argentina.
The Inter coach has been pipped at the wire for three consecutive years, having led Valencia of Spain to two losing Champions League Finals and before that Real Mallorca to runners-up spot in the last ever Cup Winners Cup Final.
Cuper will not be happy to be reminded the team that denied Mallorca that prize was Lazio.
Juve coach Marcello Lippi, determined to wreak the cruellest revenge on Inter who sacked him last year, has urged his team to emulate top Italian cyclist Mario Cipollini who makes a habit of snatching victory on the finishing line.
Roma president Franco Sensi has already conceded the title the club won with such panache last season is gone but the players have vowed to thrash Torino just in case their two rivals falter.
Inter lead Juve by a single point and Roma by two in what has been a three-way title battle since surprise packages Chievo fell by the wayside at Christmas.
In other matches AC Milan and Bologna are duelling for the fourth place that would seal the last berth in the Champions League although Chievo and Lazio still have an outside chance.
The calendar favours AC Milan who host already-relegated Lecce while Bologna visit Brescia who must win to have a chance of avoiding relegation.
Chievo must beat Atalanta to have any hope of capping their magical season with a place in Europe's top club tournament but it looks a long shot while Lazio would need to beat Inter and for AC Milan, Bologna and Chievo all to fail.
In a nightmare scenario for Italy coach Giovanni Trapattoni less than a month before the World Cup any tie for fourth-place would also need a play-off.
The same would apply for relegation where one of Brescia, Verona and Piacenza will join the already doomed Venezia, Fiorentina and Lecce in Serie B.
Brescia will have that unwanted honour if they fail to beat Bologna while Verona and Piacenza meet head to head.
All three clubs could join Udinese on points but if that were the case it would be Brescia and Piacenza who would play off for relegation as Verona and Udinese have superior records in direct matches featuring the four clubs.
Fiorentina travel to Perugia in the last match of what has been a disastrous season for the Florence club whose finances are so bad that there is no guarantee that they will be able to compete in Serie B next term.
