Champions League race, Roma, Juventus, Como and Atalanta run-ins ranked by difficulty | OneFootball

Como’s 2-0 win at Juventus on Saturday has reshaped the battle for Serie A’s Champions League places, leaving four clubs jostling for fourth.

Roma are currently fourth and could move four points clear of Juventus if they beat Cremonese on Sunday. There are 12, or in some cases 13, league games left, and Como and Atalanta remain in respectable form. According to Football Italia, the remaining fixture lists vary sharply by difficulty.

By the average difficulty metric, Juventus have the easiest run-in among teams from fourth to seventh. They have already faced leaders Inter twice, and third-placed Napoli home and away. On paper their toughest assignment is away to second-placed Milan on 26 April.

Roma have the second-easiest path. They still visit Inter at San Siro and host a direct showdown with Juventus at the Stadio Olimpico on the first of March.

Como are back in the frame after defeating Juventus, yet a demanding set of home games remains, including Inter, Napoli and Roma.

Atalanta face the hardest run-in. They still travel to Inter, Milan and Roma, and also host Napoli and Juventus.
