Matchday 4: Preview

AS Roma (2-1-0) vs Fiorentina (2-1-0)
(Stadio Olimpico)

The Viola come to Rome behind manager Roberto Garisto's claim that his side will "take all three points. Guaranteed." When asked to respond to his rival's bold prediction, Giallorossi bench boss Daniel Campoli said, "Rodrigo who, said what?" Garisto's remarks come as a bit of a surprise considering how Roma captain Francesco Totti had his way with Fiorentina last time the visitor's ventured to the Olimpico:



Both sides will look to pick up three very important points in what is the MFL's biggest match to date. Consider the winner here to be the odds on favourite for the Maple Cup.


Internazionale (1-2-0) vs AC Milan (1-0-2)
(Stadio Giuseppe Meazza)

Coming off a big derby against Roma last week, Milan step right back into the derby fray with their match against flatmates Inter. The visitors will hope to get back to their winning ways while Inter is looking to continue to move up the table and place added pressure on league leaders Roma and Fiorentina.


Manchester United (0-0-3) vs Juventus (1-0-2)
(Old Trafford)

The second brother derby of the season sees two struggling squads meet up at Manchester's historic Old Trafford. United, still looking for their first points of the season, will look to build on a decent performance last week against league co-leaders Fiorentina, while Juventus will hope to avoid losing their third straight in what has so far been a disappointing season for the Bianconeri.
