SuperSport viewers on DStv and GOtv can look forward to live actions from the La Liga and Serie A seasons, with matches scheduled for 11-16 May 2021.
The pick of matches for this round sees Atletico Madrid host Real Sociedad at Estadio Wanda Metropolitano on the evening of Wednesday 12 May at 9pm on SuperSport La Liga (DStv channel 204) and SuperSport GOtv La Liga (GOtv channel 32).
The title race continues to enthral in Spain’s top flight and Atletico need three points from this clash to move one step closer to glory, while visitors Real are scrapping to finish in fifth place and ensure a spot in the UEFA Europa League next season.
The title race’s key matches also see defending champions Real Madrid travel to Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes to face Granada at 9pm on SuperSport La Liga and SuperSport GOtv La Liga, while Barcelona are away to Levante at Estadio Ciudad de Valencia at 9pm on SuperSport La Liga and SuperSport GOtv La Liga,. The Blaugrana lost 3-1 on their last visit to the venue in November 2019 and cannot afford a repeat result.
Other games to watch include Sevilla hosting Valencia and looking to further underline their status as the top team outside of the title-contending ‘big three’, while the always entertaining Villarreal will have to fight for all three points away to a Real Valladolid side fighting against the prospect of relegation.
The headline fixture from Serie A this midweek sees Internazionale host Roma for a key clash at the San Siro in Milan on the evening of Wednesday 12 May at 7:45pm on SuperSport Football (DStv channel 205) and SuperSport GOtv Select 1 (GOtv channel 33). The meeting of the Nerazzurri and Giallorossi has long been a fearsome rivalry in Italian football and it will be no different this time around.
And viewers can expect this to be highly competitive, especially seeing as the last six successive Serie A meetings of Inter and Roma have ended in draws, including a 2-2 thriller at the Stadio Olimpico back in January which saw Roma lead through Lorenzo Pellegrini before Inter stormed back to take control with goals from Milan Skriniar and Achraf Hakimi. The Roman hosts ultimately claimed a share of the spoils thanks to a late equaliser from Gianluca Mancini.
Elsewhere in Italy this midweek, Juventus face a tricky trip away to Sassuolo on Wednesday, 12th May at 7:45pm on SuperSport Variety 3 (DStv channel 208), while Milan will be wary of visiting a Torino team fighting for their top-flight lives at 7:45pm.
Other key matches to look out for include Lazio hosting Parma in Rome on Wednesday, 12th May at 7:45pm on SuperSport Action (DStv channel 210), Atalanta welcoming Benevento to Bergamo at 7:45pm on SuperSport Variety 4 (DStv channel 209) and SuperSport GOtv Football (GOtv channel 31), and Napoli facing Udinese at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on Tuesday, 11th May at 7:45pm on SuperSport Football and SuperSport GOtv Select 1 – with the Neapolitans hoping Nigerian Victor Osimhen can continued finding the back of the net with regularity.
