Temi: TV Schedules, Juventus, Udinese, Napoli, AC Milan, Inter, Roma, Serie A

LiveSoccerTV is the source to catch all the action of matchday eight in Serie A, including where to watch Udinese vs Juventus and more.

Matchday eight will be the last round of Serie A fixtures before the last international break, and there will be plenty of action in store for calcio followers this weekend, including Udinese vs Juventus and Napoli hosting Sassuolo at the Stadio San Paolo.

Key fixture - Udinese vs Juventus

It's an "all-Bianconeri" derby as Udinese lock horns with Juventus. The visitors are cruising after beating Napoli 3-1 last weekend and now enjoy a six point gap over the rest of the table, while the hosts whill be hoping to become the first side to do what no other side has done so far this season - take points off Massimiliano Allegri's men.

Well, given that Juventus are unbeaten in 13 of their last 14 meetings with the Zebrette, that will be easier said than done. Still, Udinese did achieve a famous win over the Bianconeri recently - they beat them 1-0 in August 2015 on matchday one in Turin - so anything is possible. It has been a tough time off the pitch for La Vecchia Signora, with rape allegations now swirling around the club's star man, Cristiano Ronaldo, but despite this, the Portuguese ace is expected to be involved in the starting XI after missing out on Juve's 3-0 win over Young Boys due to suspension.

Paulo Dybala, who was the star of that win, could feature alongside Ronaldo, or alternatively could be rested, but fans would certainly be hoping to see the two in tandem.

Talking point # 1- Milan to capitalize on Chievo's awful form?

AC Milan come into their final game before the international hiatus having picked up two vital wins in Serie A and the Europa League. First was a resounding 4-1 win over Sassuolo, followed by a 3-1 victory over Olympiakos midweek, and now Gennaro Gattuso's men turn their attention towards hosting bottom placed Chievo.

This fixture couldn't come at a better time for the Diavolo. The Flying Donkeys have been hardly flying all season, and are stuck at the bottom of the table on -1 points. That's due to a points deduction they received for their dodgy accounting practices they tried to employ to keep themselves in Serie A, which ironically now could see them ultimately relegated at the end of the season. Seven points from safety, they have yet to win a game, and given that they are also beset with a slew of injuries, things only seem like they will only get worse for the Verona-based club.

From a Milan perspective, though, that will only play in the Diavolo's favor as they need to earn all three points as they will hope to end this round in the top half of the table.

Talking point #2 - Can Napoli use Liverpool win as launching pad?

Napoli's 3-1 loss to Juventus has left the Partenopei six points behind the Bianconeri. At this point in the season, that's a huge gap already, and could spell trouble for their Scudetto ambitions. However, Carlo Ancelotti's men rebounded well by beating Liverpool in a crucial Champions League clash midweek and now have a great chance to get back on track by hosting Sassuolo at the Stadio San Paolo.

Although the Neroverdi have had a solid start to the season, Napoli have a great record against the side who were promoted to the top flight in 2013. The Partenopei have lost just one of their last 10 meetings with Sassuolo and will be determined to use this game as a way to hopefully make up some of that lost ground on Juventus before the international break.
