Roma's Serie A showdown with Inter at the Stadio Olimpico has been moved to Sunday as the current cold snap continues to wreak havoc with the Serie A fixture list.

Lega Calcio had already decided to switch the scheduled Saturday evening game earlier kickoff but it has now also opted to move it back 24 hours to give it the best possible chance of going ahead.

However, Cesena's clash with Catania, which had also been rearranged for earlier on Saturday, has now been postponed because of the adverse weather conditions.

Sunday's program remains intact, but the scheduled evening kickoff between Milan and Napoli at San Siro.

The meeting between Genoa and Lazio at the Luigi Ferraris will still go ahead as planned at 12:30CET on Sunday.

The heavy snowfall in Italy over the past few days resulted in four matches being called off in midweek.

Lega Calcio has now announced that Parma versus Juventus and Atalanta against Genoa will now take place on February 15 at 18:30CET.

Meanwhile, the games between Bologna and Fiorentina and Siena and Catania have been rescheduled for the same time on February 21.
