#6: Dejan Kulusevski looking to finish with a flourish

Dejan Kulsevski will aim to finish a breakout season on a resounding note.

Dejan Kulusevski has unquestionably been one of the revelations in the Serie A this season. On loan from Juventus, he's set to return to Turin in the summer and would hence be aiming to end his wonderful time at Parma with a bang rather than a whimper.

In 35 games this season, the Swede has netted 10 times and made a further nine assists. He's been on target in each of the last three games too and enters the final day at the very top of his game.

With Parma going up against a Lecce outfit which has conceded an atrocious 81 goals, Kulusevski must be licking his fingers.

#5: More mayhem at the Mapei

Sassuolo's games have three certainties: goals, goals and more goals.
Sassuolo's games have three certainties: goals, goals and more goals.

If there's one team which can hold a candle to Atalanta in terms of entertainment, it's Sassuolo.

Ever since the Serie A campaign reconvened, there have been 51 goals for and against in the games involving the Neroverdi, including a triumvirate of nerve-jangling 3-3 draws to Inter Milan, Hellas Verona and Juventus.

The side's irresistible attacking brand coupled with a lackadaisical backline has ensured goals galore at either end, but they wouldn't mind, with eighth position already secured.

So anticipate another wild game at the Mapei stadium with the toothless Udinese side, languishing 14th, coming to town on the final day of the Serie A season.

#4: AC Milan looking to finish unbeaten

The Milan team post-lockdown has been the strongest in years.
The Milan team post-lockdown has been the strongest in years.

No team has come from the break stronger than AC Milan. Unbeaten in all 11 games since the restart, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and co. have picked up the most number of points in this period in Serie A, an amazing run that has also seen huge victories to Juventus, AS Roma and Lazio along the way.

So with the winds firmly in Milan's sails, the objective on Saturday would naturally be to finish just as strongly.

Stefano Piolo would be hard-pressed not to have secured a Champions League return despite many teams above them stumbling. However, he can still be proud of how brilliantly he's turned the tide for a recently stuttering outfit.
