Serie A's Big Week: Derby della Madonnina and Udinese vs Roma
This weekend in Serie A, the first Derby della Madonnina of the season will be played, and Udinese will host AS Roma. Alongside these matches, Milan's new stadium project has been one of the main talking points.

This weekend, several important matches will be played in European football. On Saturday, Inter and AC Milan will meet at San Siro in the first Derby della Madonnina of the season. The same day at midday, Udinese will host AS Roma at home, and the match can be watched live on CBS.
For Milan's new head coach, Portuguese Ruben Amorim, this match will be his first derby with the club. Amorim left Manchester United in the summer and joined Milan. On Thursday, both clubs announced plans for a new arena to replace the stadium they currently share.
The new stadium will be called Generali Stadium. Insurance company Generali will pay 650 million euros (725 million dollars) for a naming rights deal lasting 20 years. According to the clubs, the 71,500-seat stadium was designed by the architectural firms Foster + Partners and MANICA. The project involves Lord Norman Foster, who also worked on the design of London's Wembley Stadium, and David Manica. The stadium's X-shaped steel structure and double-curved roof stand out.
The stands will form a continuous 360-degree bowl. The Curva sections at the ends will be tilted up to 37 degrees and will rise like steep walls close to the pitch. The design is said to be inspired by the craftsmanship of Milan's Duomo.
