No, this is not that basketball tournament, that’s over for
this year. With seven games left, everyone is focused on which Serie A teams
will reach the Champions League for next season. Obviously, Juventus will be
there, until they spectacularly crash out somewhere between the group stage and
the final. But who will the other three teams be representing Italy? And are
any of them teams that could actually win in the Champions League, unlike that
team from Turin? Today is your turn to predict the Final Four.
Currently, Juventus are one point away from their eighth consecutive Scudetto, obviously in first. Second are Napoli, 20 points behind on 64 points. Next are i Biscione, with 57 points. Their beautiful cousins, Milan are tied for fourth place with Atalanta, both on 52 points. Next come Roma with 51 points, then Lazio and Torino, both on 49 points. Of note, however, Lazio still have a game in hand. The dark horse in the race for Europe would be Sampdoria, with 45 points. Whether or not you decide to compare game schedules first, please feel free to vote below by choosing the FOUR teams you think will qualify for the Champions League.
As a reference point, check out the poll from two months
ago, “Where
Will Milan Finish This Season?” Is your optimism level the same after
Milan’s form, injuries, etc.?
