It’s possible the Champions League places will be decided this weekend, as if Juventus don’t beat Inter today, the others could be beyond them.
The battle for the top four had looked as if it was going down to the wire, but Juve’s 3-0 home defeat to Milan changed everything.
Both Atalanta and Milan know a win this weekend – as they face Genoa and Cagliari respectively – will guarantee a top four finish.
This is because they both have a superior head-to-head record with Juventus.

That would leave it between the Bianconeri and Napoli going into the final round, but the issue could well be resolved before then.
If Juventus don’t beat Inter today, Napoli will be in a position to secure their Champions League place with a win away to already-safe Fiorentina on Sunday.
They have an identical head-to-head record with Juventus, so position if they were to finish level on points would be decided by overall goal difference.
Napoli are eight goals clear on that score, so it would be practically impossible for Juve to catch them.
The Partenopei have a goal difference of +43 compared to the Old Lady’s +35.
