With only two matches left in the 2024-25 Serie A season, Napoli and Inter Milan are locked in a tight race for the championship. Napoli currently leads by one point, leaving open the possibility of a title playoff. However, certain results this weekend could see Antonio Conte`s team secure the trophy early.
Napoli`s Path to Victory This Weekend
Napoli (78 points) can clinch the title if they defeat Parma away and Lazio beats Inter (77 points) at San Siro. Both matches are scheduled for Sunday at 19:45, along with seven other Serie A fixtures to maintain competitive integrity.
Scenarios for the Final Two Rounds
If Napoli fails to gain a four-point lead after this weekend, the title race will continue to the season`s final day. Here are the possible outcomes:
- Napoli wins both matches: Guaranteed champions
- Napoli wins one, draws one: Need Inter to drop points
- Napoli wins one, loses one: Inter must win both to avoid Napoli title or playoff
- Napoli draws both: Inter needs 4 points to win, 3 for playoff
- Napoli draws one, loses one: Inter victory clinches, two draws force playoff
- Napoli loses both: Inter needs one win, or draw plus Napoli loss for title
A playoff will occur if the teams finish level on points after the final match day. The title race remains wide open, with multiple scenarios still possible as the season reaches its climax.
