With just 180 minutes left in the season, the Serie A title race has dramatically reopened. Napoli`s recent draw against Genoa, combined with Inter`s victory over Torino, has narrowed the gap at the top to a single point, setting up a thrilling conclusion to the championship.
Looking ahead, Napoli seemingly has the easier fixture list on paper, scheduled to face Parma (four points clear of the relegation zone) and Cagliari (five points above the danger area). Inter faces a more challenging path, with matches against Lazio, who are heavily involved in the battle for a Champions League spot, and Como, who have already secured their safety.
As the previous matchday demonstrated, anything is possible. However, according to Sisal experts, Napoli remains in control of their destiny and is still the favorite to clinch the Scudetto, with odds currently at 1.30. An Inter comeback is priced at 3.50.
There is also the fascinating possibility that the title race might not be decided on the 38th and final matchday. If Napoli and Inter finish the season level on points, and considering their head-to-head record is tied and Inter has a superior goal difference (+42 vs +30), a dramatic playoff match for the Scudetto would be required. This scenario, while still on the table, is considered unlikely by Sisal experts, reflected in the high odds of 12.00.
