Italy: Serie A Weekend Preview

AC Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic must settle for being a observer on Saturday when the Rossoneri go up against his former team Inter Milan.

The Swede has to complete a two-match ban and that means the Serie A leaders will be without their leading scorer for one of the most important games of the campaign.

Adding spice to the encounter is that Inter coach Leonardo will square off for the first time against AC Milan, the team he spent many years playing for, and coached last season.

Napoli go into this weekend's games in third and just one point behind Inter.

The club have won back-to-back league games going into their clash with Lazio at the Stadio San Paolo. Napoli have not lost at home since October 25. Roma are running out of time if they are going to have a top-four finish. They host Juventus at the Stadio Olimpico on Sunday night.

Fiorentina have not given up hope of playing in Europe next season.

They go into this weekend's game at Cesena trailing Roma by nine points.
