Bologna-Juventus, also on October 29, and Lazio-Catania and Siena-Fiorentina, which take place the following weekend, were also considered risky games, but these games will not restricted to away fans. However, the fans will only be allowed to buy one ticket each.
Napoli fans are also banned for the match away to Milan on November 2nd, which means Milan fans will be able to fill the seats normally reserved for away fans, thanks to their 'Cuore Rossonero' cards, a special membership card.
