I am unsure as to the correct translation for anticipo as in:
Nell'anticipo del sabato sera, il Milan aveva battuto al «Meazza» per 3-0 il Parma.
and also:
Nell'altro anticipo, l'Udinese ha vinto 3-2 a Siena.
Some of my thoughts are: earlier game/qualifier/game brought foward/game played ahead of..., but I remain unconvinced!

Saturday game
I'm not a big fan of soccer/football, so I don't know if there's a specific expression for it in the U.K. (or the U.S., but I doubt it there), but I'd just call it "Saturday game" in this case.
And are Wednesday games called "anticipi" in Italian? Not that it matters for this particular context.

l'anticipo (per il calcio italiano) può essere di 1 giorno; il posticipo può essere una partita di sera (mentre gli altri giocano il pomeriggio), ma per alcune squadre (serie B) può essere un giorno dopo
