Discipline on show in Napoli
It may have taken ten rounds to happen, however the Serie A experienced it’s first match where there were no cautions issued in the match between Napoli and Palermo, not a surprising result considering the two sides are in the bottom five teams holding the most amount of disciplinary cards.
Napoli continued their good form and are now on a five match winning streak after Gonzalo Higuain and Dries Mertens helped the home team to a 2-0 win and are now firming as one of the favourites for the scudetto.
Totti to finally see Scudetto number two?
Roma could count themselves quite unlucky for the past four seasons, having to battle a formidable Juventus squad for a chance at a third Scudetto. In all of the past four seasons, the Giallorossi have fallen away after making very positive starts.
2015-16 could very much turn out to be the same, however, there seems to be a difference in the air over Rome and with the help of in-formers Gervinho, Miralem Pjanic an Mohammed Salah, it may just be the season Roma go all the way and earn Scudetto number two for club legend Francesco Totti.

Gianluigi Buffon and Patrice Evra label Juventus unacceptable
Club legend Gianluigi Buffon and the experienced Patrice Evra have both labelled the teams performance against Sassuolo “unacceptable” and “not the real Juventus” after going down 1-0 midweek, also losing Giorgio Chiellini to a red card midway through the second-half.
The pressure is now firmly on Massimiliano Allegri to turn the Bianconeri’s performances and ladder position around. Juventus currently has four losses for the season, the last time there were more was during 2012-13.
