Roma vs. Hellas Verona (Saturday, 5.00pm)
Following the shock removal of controversial head coach Jose Mourinho, Roma host Hellas Verona at Stadio Olimpico on Saturday evening.
Last week's loss to AC Milan was the final straw for the Giallorossi's owners, who now hope to surge up the Serie A standings under a returning hero.
We say: Roma 3-1 Hellas Verona
Both teams are decimated by absences, but Roma have been freed from the shackles of Jose Mourinho's pragmatic approach and can win over their aggrieved fans with three much-needed points. Verona not only struggle on the road, but their record in Rome is also quite awful.

Udinese vs. AC Milan (Saturday, 7.45pm)
Still trailing behind Serie A's top two, AC Milan aim to apply more pressure on their title rivals when they visit Udinese on Saturday.
Last week's win over Roma tightened Milan's grip on third place, while their hosts have picked up just one point in 2024 and lie dangerously close to the drop zone.
We say: Udinese 1-2 AC Milan
A disappointing cup exit aside, Milan have been in fine form since Christmas, and their away record suggests they can score at least once in Saturday's late kickoff. The Rossoneri average two goals per game on the road in Serie A, while Udinese can be brittle at the back.
Our tipster partners are predicting over 2.5 goals.
