Ranieri effect: Roma the best team in Europe in 2025

Claudio Ranieri’s Roma has achieved an impressive feat, securing 26 points in the first 10 league matches of 2025. This is a record unmatched by any other team in Europe’s top five leagues.

Ranieri took over as coach in November, succeeding Ivan Juric.

Since Ranieri’s return to Stadio Olimpico, Roma has significantly improved their league position. They have accumulated 33 points in 16 games, averaging 2.06 points per game.

Their performance in 2025 is particularly remarkable. Roma remains undefeated in Serie A this year, and no other team in Europe’s major leagues has gained more league points since the start of 2025.

Roma’s 26 points in 10 matches surpass even top teams like PSG, Bayern Munich, and Liverpool, who have earned 25 points each. While PSG played nine games, Bayern also played 10, and Liverpool played 11, making Roma’s average even more impressive.

The top ten list is rounded out by Strasbourg (23 points in 10 games), OGC Nice (22 points in 10 games), Bologna (22 points in 11 games), Bayer Leverkusen (21 points in 10 games), Inter (21 points in 11 games), and Juventus (20 points in 10 games).
