Torino's Giampiero Ventura and Napoli's Kalidou Koulibaly are among those to have picked up one-game bans after Week 13 of Serie A.

The Granata Coach has received a one match ban for “turning to a spectator with a threatening expression and intimidating gestures” during his side's defeat to Juventus at the weekend.

It means that Ventura will be in the stands when Palermo visit the Olimpico on Saturday.

Inter Coach Roberto Mancini has, however, avoided a touchline ban.

The 50-year-old was sent to the stands during Inter’s 4-2 defeat at Roma, but the Lega Serie A has decided that the tactician’s altercation with the fourth official was not worthy of a touchline ban.

Elsewhere, suspensions were confirmed for Stephan Lichtsteiner of Juventus and Milan’s Michael Essien, who were both sent off during the weekend’s fixtures.

Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly, Felipe of Parma, Edgar Barreto of Palermo and Udinese’s Maurizio Domizzi have been given the same punishment for their respective red cards.

Palermo’s Franco Vazquez will also be suspended after picking up his fourth yellow card of the season, with the same sanction being applied to Pedro Obiang, the Sampdoria forward.

Nicolas Burdisso of Genoa, Atalanta's Boukary Drame, Alessandro Gazzi of Torino, Verona player Emil Hallfredsson, Francesco Magnanelli of Sassuolo, and Sampdoria's Roberto Soriano will all face the same sanction after also picking up a fourth yellow card of the season.

Torino captain Kamil Glik was fined €1,500 for arguing with match officials and Sassuolo striker Domenico Berardi was given a final warning for the same offence.

Off the pitch, Sampdoria have been fined €15,000 for “insults relating to territorial origin” from their fans in the draw at Napoli, while an €8,000 fine has been levelled at Roma after fans threw flares and smoke bombs towards the pitch during the 4-2 win over Inter.
