Update on the scudetto race.

Milan survived February. Before that series of matches we all agreed that we're gonna need some 4-5 pts difference if we want to win the scudetto. If we beat the delayed Bologna match, it's only gonna be a 2 pts difference so if we still think the same as we did in January, this scudetto is in Milan's hands and theirs to lose.

As far as Juve are concerned, Milan's February is our March. We have a very tough schedule:

03 March - Chievo (H)
07 March - Bologna (A)
11 March - Genoa (A)
17 March - Fiorentina (A)
20 March - Milan (H) Coppa Italia
25 March - Inter (H)
31 March - Napoli (H)

If we survive March without more than 1 or 2 pts less than Milan in the standings, we'll have a chance.

How's he doing at Newcastle or wherever it is he's at?
He's been pretty good. He was bad against Fulham and Tottenham but he was decent in the other games I have seen, with an excellent performance against Manchester United.

Don't listen to Albert :D

We do better against midtable/big teams than against small teams because the former usually don't park the bus. Chievo, Bologna, Genoa and Napoli are going to be out hardest games.

I believe Milan are clear favourites just now.

03 March - Chievo (H)

Chievo will be without Pellisier; Bologna is tough; Genoa are unpredictable; Fiorentina are poor; no idea what Inter will be like in a month; and the Napoli game, by my reckoning, falls the weekend between the two legs of the CL QF, which Napoli ought to be in, so they shouldn't be fully focused on playing Juve.

that is a scary looking march. teams usually suffer from a terrible "dip in form" per season, only severity depending on its length, has milan gone through this yet? Juve haven't I feel and I hope that series of draws we had not too long ago was about it.
