MILAN - Inter Milan's home game with Lazio and AS Roma's match with Cagliari have been rearranged for Wednesday December 5 after they were postponed on Sunday because of the fatal shooting of a Lazio fan by a policeman.

A statement on the Italian League's Web site (www.lega-calcio.it) on Tuesday said the two matches would kickoff at 1930 GMT.

No decision has yet been taken on what to do with Atalanta's match with AC Milan, which was abandoned after seven minutes on Sunday when fans tried to smash down a pitchside barrier in protest at the shooting, which police say was accidental.

The dates for the first legs of the last 16 of the Italian Cup have also been finalised given the fixture upheaval with Empoli v Juventus on December 6, Ascoli v Fiorentina on December 11 and Cagliari v Sampdoria on December 12.

Lazio v Napoli, Reggina v Inter, Torino v Roma and Udinese v Palermo take place on December 19 and Milan v Catania on December 20.
