Would this be aired online? I'm planning to watch this as the pandemic is so boring that all I know to watch is NBA. Also, why create a new thread while there was already a prediction thread made by swogerino? Though it's obvious that the main OP of the prediction thread isn't active for the last 9months, it doesn't mean that his prediction thread is dead. Many are still following it. I see no wrong in here, I just doubt the reason.

Hoping for a link. Also, is the announcer and the main broadcaster's language is english? It would be hard to understand if the live video is pure italian talking.

Football matches from major leagues like Serie A, La Liga, Bundesliga, Premier League are always aired online even before the pandemic since they've partnered with popular sports channel. Just check your local channel if you want free coverage. You can also pay for subscription if you want live access to all matches.

Serie A coverage is not exclusive to the Italians so it depends where you are watching from. If you watch from ESPN or other international sports channel, it's in English.

There is still two weeks for start of Seria A with first match Fiorentina - Torino.
Interesting news is that Zlatan Ibrahimovic signed new dela with AC Milan for one more year.
Luis Suarez and Juventus probably agreed for contract and that would be a huge boost for Juventus.

Sport events, football matches will be played without supporters at stadium. Supporters can only be join stadiums and support their clubs if the pandemic goes good and no burden on healthcare system after schools will be reopened next 2 weeks. It will depends on government observation on new infection and if nothing bad, Serie A matches can be opened for supporters in October.

Inter is too busy with transfers: Vidal, Kolarov, Darmin can join. Eriksen, Godin can leave.

Nicolo Zaniolo, a great young player got his injury again. This time he was injuried at the anterior cruciate ligament and has to go a surgery. He injured and came back impresively in last matches of Serie A, now he will be out for months. I wish that Zaniolo's career won't be destroyed like that.

Forza Nicolo!
