Will Inter Milan take the Serie A title? | OneFootball

Inter Milan are one of the most successful Italian teams ever. They have won the Serie A 20 times, the second-most in the history of the tournament, beaten to the top spot by Juventus.

This year, too, the team was off to a flying start, reaching the top of the league table very early on. However, though the momentum has somewhat left them behind, they are still far from being counted out. Let’s take a look at where the teams stand at the time of writing of this article.

The road so far

Inter’s season began in August, and they didn’t get off to the best start. They lost two of their first three matches, but the comeback was something to behold. When Inter started winning, they did so in landslides. Since then, they have only lost to four clubs:

Inter have beaten every other team it has played. Indeed, it leads the table when it comes to goal difference and points at present. They have a goal difference of +20, so they are continuing to score, and heavily at that. They are still a powerhouse team and have a chance to take it all home by the end of the tournament. 

Who are the contenders?

The Serie A is not an easy competition. Football is Italy’s bread and butter, and there are dozens of strong clubs all vying for the top spot. By gaining pole position, Inter Milan have painted a big target on their back, and the entire competition will be gunning for it. The most immediate competition will come from the other teams in the top spots. Let’s break them all down.

Roma

Roma have dropped to fourth in the table but still have a game in hand at the time of writing. They have lost back-to-back league games, being defeated by Napoli and then Cagliari.

However, there is also the fact that Inter has already defeated Roma at home. The only way for Roma to return the favour would be to beat Inter in Milan. If they can do that, then they will have successfully stalled the momentum Inter has built up so far.

AC Milan

The rivalry between AC Milan and Inter Milan goes back more than a hundred years. This all came to a head in the 2023–24 Serie A season, which Inter Milan won, thus clinching its 20th title. It just so happened that the runner-up was AC Milan. Before this win, the rivals were tied at 19 championships apiece. With Inter edging AC out in that department, Milano’s oldest club will want some payback. 

And it just so happens that in the very next match, in their first-ever meeting in this year’s Serie A, AC Milan defeated Inter Milan and brought their momentum to a crashing halt. With another match due later on in the season, nobody really knows how the next Milan derby will shape up.

Napoli

After a few years languishing in the lower divisions, Napoli made a strong comeback to Serie A in the 2000s. They have gone from strength to strength since winning the Serie A title in the 2022–23 season for the first time since the 1990s. Inter placed third that season. 

Napoli went on to win the title again last season, making them the current, reigning, and defending Serie A champions. And who came out as the runner-up in that tournament? Inter Milan. Plus, Napoli are one of the only three teams to have beaten Inter this season, so this feud is one that has history. If Napoli can beat Inter in Milan, it will almost definitely stop Inter in its tracks.

Conclusion

If you’re a punter, then don’t rule Inter Milan out. At the time of writing this article, they have won 11 of their 15 matches. Plus, they have no draws to report, either. Their win rate makes for good odds, but always look at all available stats before you make a wager in this tournament!
