Quick Serie A Fixtures Question

Johannes · 01-02-2009, 08:09 PM

Hello,

Thinking of going to Italy this Easter. It seems like Saturday, April 11 is the playing day.

Now the thing is, as you know two games are usually moved to Saturday from Sunday for TV coverage (I would imagine). Will they now move any matches from Saturday to Good Friday instead? I'll arrive in Milan that day so I would miss Inter v Palermo if they decide to play on the Friday!

Last question, when are the changes in the fixtures to be announced?

Thanks.

April 11th would be matchday 31....if youre in Rome, go to the Derby

it seems as all matches are being played on that Saturday, most likely due to the holiday i assume. as of now thats how its scheduled at least.

if a move is to be made it usually happens 2 or so weeks ahead, but im not 100% on that.

and finally, im sure no matches in Italy would be played on Good Friday.

Thanks for a quick reply.

Not in Rome unfortunately, Milan. The thing is I was worried that they would move Inter v Palermo to the Friday, but as you say chances should be very slim.

Seems like they will all play the same day then, that's a pity actually as I had planned to take the train to another match.

Ah well, thanks.

right, only a guess, but its probably scheduled that way because of the holiday. otherwise its usually the 2 matches on Saturday, and then the rest on Sunday with one late match.

but again, probably due to Easter they will all be at 3 pm (Italian time) on Sat. and yes, i have to say, im sure no matches on Good Friday.

cheers and enjoy

I'm assuming there might be some night games and you might have a chance to catch them.
