Three thrilling matchdays await the various Serie A teams still battling for a goal until the end of the season.

Two of these are Lecce and Juventus, who will battle tomorrow at 8:45 PM at the Via Del Mare for survival and the Champions League race, respectively.

Lecce coach Eusebio Di Francesco, former Roma player, spoke at a press conference and, among other topics, touched on the battle for fourth place involving Roma, who play Sunday at 6 PM at the Tardini against Parma.

Di Francesco confessed that many Giallorossi fans have written to him asking him to do the Trigoria club a favor: “They asked me, as always. But they have to think about themselves first. They shouldn’t even ask us; we want to try to bring home valuable points and put in a top-notch performance.”

The team coached by the former Giallorossi player will take to the field before Roma, and if good news arrives from the Via Del Mare, Gasperini’s men could play Parma, with the opportunity to leapfrog Juventus in the standings and move into fourth place.
