Inter Milan vs. Hellas Verona (Saturday, 11.30am)
Seeking the crown of 'winter champions', Inter Milan host Hellas Verona as they conclude the first half of their Serie A campaign on Saturday.
One point at San Siro would see Inter top the table after 19 games, but the Nerazzurri will want to show no mercy against relegation-threatened visitors.
We say: Inter Milan 3-0 Hellas Verona
Recent history and current form are both in Inter's favour ahead of their Saturday lunchtime meeting with lowly Verona, who lack punch in attack and are flimsy at the back. Therefore, the Scudetto favourites should summarily take care of business.

We say: Frosinone 2-1 Monza
After going two games without a home win, Frosinone should get the better of Monza in front of their fans to begin the year positively.

Sassuolo vs. Fiorentina (Saturday, 7.45pm)
Having climbed into Serie A's top four, Fiorentina aim to preserve their place among Italy's elite on Saturday, when they visit struggling Sassuolo.
A run of four wins from five has lifted La Viola above several big names in the chasing pack, while their hosts are embroiled in a battle against the drop.
We say: Sassuolo 1-2 Fiorentina
The distraction of a midweek Coppa Italia defeat will have done struggling Sassuolo no favours ahead of a tough test against in-form Fiorentina. As the Viola have had more than a week to prepare for their first fixture of 2024, expect them to edge out a home side that simply cannot stop conceding goals.
