Serie A has reached the midway point of the 2022-23 season and Napoli are 12 points clear at the top of the table, but it’s a battle royal for Champions League places, as five teams are in a three-point radius.
The Partenopei only lost one game, 1-0 to Inter, and their remarkable consistency has seen them reach the halfway stage on 50 points from 19 rounds.
Behind them, it nobody has been remotely consistent, creating a scuffle for the other Champions League places that could go down to the wire.
Milan’s heavy defeat to Lazio at the Stadio Olimpico left the Rossoneri alone in second place, but also only one point clear of the crowd consisting of Inter, Roma and Lazio all on 37.
Atalanta are right up there too with 35 points and have just found a good spell of form.
The situation could also change if Juventus win their appeal against the 15-point penalty, because without that, they would currently be on 38 and level with Milan in second.
