🤩 Serie A thrills: most unpredictable league, record set 🥇

For years, there has been talk of a decline in the quality of the Italian championship. On one hand, this decline has caused local clubs to lose prominence on the international stage, but on the other, it has led to greater balance among the title contenders.

With the end of Juventus' dominance, which saw them collect numerous Scudetti in the 2010s, Serie A has returned to being an unpredictable championship. There have been four different winners since 2020.

Inter, Milan, Napoli, and Juventus themselves have shared the spoils, but other clubs like Atalanta, Roma, Lazio, Fiorentina, and more recently, Bologna have posed a challenge and often ranked among the top positions.

🔥 Four Teams Within Two Points

This greater balance is confirmed by very interesting data: for the second consecutive championship, after 13 matchdays, at least four teams are at the top within two points. This had never happened in the previous 30 seasons in the era of three points for a win.

Not only that. Nine of the first 13 matchdays have recorded the absence of a solitary leader. This hasn't happened since the 2011/12 season, while to find a season with more "leaderless" matchdays at this point in the championship, you have to go back to 2003/2004 (as many as 12 out of 13). More recently, the 2021/2022 season, with eight out of 13 matchdays, and the 2022/2023 season, with seven out of 13, have been the most balanced.

Currently, Napoli and Milan share the top spot with 28 points. Behind them are Inter and Roma with 27. Bologna could also join them in second place with a victory against Cremonese, and Como and Juventus are not far behind, with 24 and 23 points respectively.

Many teams within a few points, led by some of the best coaches around. With such a ranking, everyone is allowed to dream, and who knows, maybe a surprise team will win the Scudetto.
