Serie A - Matchday 29 overview
Juventus still sit eight points clear, but the Bianconeri could face a tricky test against a Sampdoria side who are unbeaten in their last seven matches. Meanwhile, Roma are in action against Sassuolo after their disappointing Europa League exit against Lyon; although the Giallorossi won 2-1, they ended up losing 5-4 on aggregate. Napoli battle Empoli to start off Sunday's fixtures, and Udinese will hope to take advantage of a struggling Palermo to make it a third win sans defeat after suffering three back-to-back losses.
