Scott McTominay is currently a major inspiration for Napoli. |
Currently, Inter Milan and Napoli both have 71 points after 33 rounds. If both teams continue to lead the league after round 38 with the same number of points, the Serie A organizers will be forced to hold a play-off match to determine the champion.
This stems from the fact that the 2024/25 Serie A season only considers head-to-head results between teams to determine rankings, not goal difference. Both head-to-head matches between Inter Milan and Napoli this season ended in a 1-1 draw.
This scenario is highly likely given that both Inter and Napoli are showing impressive form, and the league only has five rounds left. If this scenario materializes, the special play-off match will take place at the home stadium of the team with the better goal difference, according to TNT Sport .
Currently, Inter Milan has a goal difference of +40, much higher than Napoli's +27. The match will only be played once, and if it ends in a draw after 90 minutes, the winner will be decided by a penalty shootout, not extra time.
The last time Serie A had to use a play-off to decide the champion was in 1964, when Inter lost 0-2 to Bologna in a crucial match. The race between Inter and Napoli from now until the end of the season promises to be even more exciting.
Witness the free-kick that sank MU. On the evening of April 20th, Sarabia unleashed a free-kick that nestled into the net, helping Wolves defeat Manchester United 1-0.
