Serie A matches scheduled for Saturday, April 26, have been postponed due to the mourning ceremony following the death of Pope Francis. The Pontiff passed away on April 21 at his residence in the Vatican.
Earlier, matches planned for Monday, April 21, were also postponed. Now, three more fixtures from Matchday 34 have been rescheduled:
-
Como vs Genoa
-
Inter vs Roma
-
Lazio vs Parma
The remaining games of the 34th round will go ahead as scheduled.
This postponement could benefit Inter Milan, who are preparing for crucial clashes both in Europe and domestically. Simone Inzaghi’s side, featuring Henrikh Mkhitaryan, will face AC Milan in the Coppa Italia semifinal on April 23 and then take on Barcelona in the Champions League semifinal on April 30. The extra time to rest and prepare may play a key role in these decisive matches.
