(Reuters) - The Serie A title race may be over after Napoli won the Scudetto this week but Lazio's visit to AC Milan on Saturday could play a key role in the fight for the last three Champions League spots.
Maurizio Sarri's Lazio side face a tough test in Milan, who have been unbeaten at San Siro in their last eight games in all competitions. Stefano Pioli's Milan outfit, meanwhile, need a win to provisionally move back into fourth place.
"It's almost all or nothing tomorrow. We have to pick up a lot of points between now and the end of the season and tomorrow is incredibly important," Pioli said. Milan right back Alessandro Florenzi might miss out due to a virus but centre-back Fikayo Tomori is set to return to the starting lineup after a one-game suspension.Juventus have only point from their last three away games in Serie A and the fixtures do not get any easier with fifth-placed Atalanta up next for Massimiliano Allegri's side on Sunday.
Juve have found scoring on the road difficult, managing only four goals in their last five league games.
