Join us for all the build-up and action as it happens from today’s Serie A games, Bologna-Fiorentina, Torino-Roma and Milan-Lecce.
There is a minute’s silence before kick-off in all matches following the death of Fiorentina President Rocco Commisso.
We begin at 14.00 GMT (15.00 CET), when the Viola are in action at the Stadio Dall’Ara in Bologna.
Roma visit Torino just days after their 3-2 Coppa Italia defeat, kicking off at 17.00 GMT (18.00 CET).
Milan have the chance to consolidate second place when they host unpredictable Lecce at 19.45 GMT (20.45 CET).
Dodo had started the move with a counter from his own penalty area, Heggem was keeping Piccoli onside!
Heggem is the one perhaps keeping him on. It’s the position before the Freuler ricochet, that’s what counts.
It’s taking a while to check, meaning it’s very, very tight.
Dodo had rolled across for Piccoli, it then ricocheted off him and Freuler, back into his path, and he prodded it past the goalkeeper from close range.
But Piccoli seemed offside.
Bologna really did not turn up for this half. Italiano must give them a good shouting at during the break.
Gudmundsson is still down in pain after Holm trod on his foot, which eventually gets the Bologna man booked, even though the referee played the advantage.
Fagioli snapshot from outside the area is on target, but Ravaglia takes the sting out.
Mandragora hits a positively ferocious strike from distance that whistles just wide of the far top corner!
Gudmundsson promising counter-attack, but Casale does just about enough to put him off on the Mandragora long ball.
Fagioli ball floated over the top, slightly too long for Gosens, allowing Ravaglia to smother.
Bologna then respond with Holm’s cross put out for a corner by Mandragora.
Bologna free kick is lashed off target.
The rain is getting really bad now, and it wasn’t good to begin with.
Parisi again a bit greedy, this time sprinting at the by-line and ignoring teammate Dodo.
Castro instead attacks, turns Comuzzo and draws the foul.

Parisi bursts down the right and gets a bit greedy, hits the side-netting when he had other options.
Bologna have not turned up.
Dangerous ball across from the left again, but this time Gudmundsson was offside.
Looks like this one will count!
Gudmundsson gets down the left, flashes a ball across the face of goal and Mandragora is quickest to react from six yards to tap in!
He runs to the touchline and picks up a special Fiorentina shirt with Rocco Commisso’s name on it.
