Milan target Napoli response

Massimiliano Allegri believes his AC Milan team\'s 2-0 midweek defeat at Lazio will not hurt his side\'s Scudetto hopes. I Rossoneri, who host Napoli on Sunday night, lost for the fourth time this season in Rome. Milan are one point behind Serie A leaders Juventus, who have a game in hand. \"We played a terrible game but I don\'t think this result gives the all-clear to Juventus,\" Allegri told Gazzetta dello Sport. \"The campaign is still long and there will be time to discuss these things. \"I believe the defeat can do us good and help us to grow. Lately, despite winning, we haven\'t had the same grit that we need to win the Scudetto. This is why I believe the defeat can be healthy.\" This weekend\'s opponents Napoli have drawn three of their last four games, losing the other against Genoa at the weekend. Juventus confident in Turin, Udinese seek rare away win Juventus remain unbeaten this season and host Siena on Sunday, with both teams heading into the encounter fully rested after their midweek games were called off due to snow. Siena, who hold the last position of safety, remain winless on the road this season. Udinese are third in the standings thanks to their impressive unbeaten run at home so far. However, the Friuli outfit have collected just ten of their 41 points on the road and are seeking only their third away win at Fiorentina on Sunday. Lazio, whose win over Milan was their second in a row, are two points behind Udinese and take on Genoa at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris. Roma and Inter Milan go into their game at the Stadio Olimpico on Saturday looking to bounce back from disappointing results. I Nerazzurri followed their 1-0 defeat at Lecce with a 4-4 draw against Palermo in midweek, while I Giallorossi lost 4-2 at Cagliari having previously been held to a 1-1 home draw by Bologna. Inter are fifth in the standings, five points clear of Roma. Palermo have taken seven points from a possible nine to climb to eighth in the standings, and host Atalanta looking to make it three wins in a row at La Favorita. Cagliari, Parma in optimistic mood Cagliari go into Sunday\'s encounter at bottom side Novara in good spirits after their triumph over Roma, which halted a three-game winless run. Parma have lost just once in their last eight league games and travel to Verona to face Chievo on Sunday with both sides level on 24 points. Catania have taken just two points from their last four games as they prepare for Saturday\'s clash with relegation-threatened Cesena at the Dino Manuzzi stadium. Lecce had taken seven points of a possible nine from their previous three games before losing 2-1 at Udinese on Wednesday. They are in 18th place and host Bologna.
