The Italian refereeing committee has confirmed the officials for the final matchday of the Serie A campaign. Several high-profile referees have received appointments for Sunday evening’s simultaneous kick-offs.
Luca Zufferli will oversee the Turin derby between Torino FC and Juventus. This fixture carries significant weight for European qualification. Meanwhile, Simone Sozza has been selected to handle the match between Hellas Verona and AS Roma.
The season reaches its conclusion with several critical positions still unresolved. Two places in the Champions League, two spots in the Europa League, and one relegation position are all available.
AC Milan and AS Roma can both secure finishes inside the top four. If both clubs achieve victory, they will qualify for next season’s Champions League. This outcome would mean Juventus and Como 1907 enter the Europa League instead.
The fight to avoid relegation is equally tense. US Cremonese hold a one-point advantage over US Lecce in the battle to stay in the top division.
To ensure fairness, all matches affecting these outcomes will begin at the same time. The kick-off is scheduled for 7:45 PM British Summer Time, which is 8:45 PM Central European Summer Time.
The full list of appointments includes Federico Perri for ACF Fiorentina versus Atalanta BC, with Marco Di Bello on VAR duties. Daniele Bonacina will officiate Bologna FC against FC Internazionale Milano, assisted by Luigi Pezzuto.
Maria Sole Ferrieri Caputi takes charge of SS Lazio versus AC Pisa 1909, with Marco Ghersini as the VAR official. Niccolò Turrini will referee Parma Calcio 1913 against US Sassuolo, while Gianluca Giua monitors from the video room.
Daniele Zanotti has been appointed for SSC Napoli versus Udinese Calcio, with Valerio Prontera on VAR. Fabio Maresca will officiate the crucial relegation clash between US Cremonese and Como 1907, assisted by Luca Gariglio.
Daniele Doveri takes control of US Lecce against Genoa CFC, with Paolo Mazzoleni on video duties. Marco Guida will oversee AC Milan versus Cagliari Calcio, supported by Marco Abisso on VAR.
For the Torino FC and Juventus match, Aleandro Di Paolo will serve as the VAR official. Antonio Rapuano Meraviglia will assist Simone Sozza in the Hellas Verona and AS Roma fixture.
