After matchday number 34, the situation hasn't changed much. Only at the top Inter jumped over Napoli, to grab the second spot.

AC Milan are on the Champions road to glory, claiming another victory by beating Brescia 0-1, and eight points clear with 12 points in play.

For Lazio the defeat against Inter was bitter and sour, but on the other hand Udinese and Juventus didn't took advantage of our defeat.  

Udinese lost at Friuli, 0-2 against Parma.  Juventus slipped up at home against Catania, having a 2-0 lead reduced to a 2-2 draw in the 93rd minute.

For the next matchday, Lazio will already know the Fiorentina v Udinese result on Sunday.   So by beating Juventus on Monday, Lazio will take a huge step forward.  A victory will leave Juventus definitively out of the Champions League, and a perfect confidence boost for the 'bianco-celesti' for the next 'final' against Udinese.

The current situation:

1. AC Milan 74
Bologna home - Roma away - Cagliari home - Udinese away

2. Inter 66
Cesena away - Fiorentina home - Napoli away - Catania home

3. Napoli 65
Genoa home - Lecce away - Inter home - Juventus away

4. LAZIO 60
Juventus home - Udinese away - Genoa homa - Lecce away

5. Udinese 59
Fiorentina away - Lazio home - Chievo away - Milan home

6. AS Roma 56
Bari away - Milan home - Catania away - Sampdoria home

7. Juventus 53
Lazio away - Chievo home - Parma away - Napoli home
