With two days to go, the Scudetto still has no owner. A situation that, according to Alessandro Altobelli, perfectly describes the beauty and unpredictability of an Italian championship that has finally returned to high levels of competitiveness. The former Inter striker, now a commentator, sees Napoli as the team with its destiny in its hands.
“If the Azzurri win the last two games - explains - Inter won't be able to do anything about it. The Nerazzurri must win and hope, while Napoli must just continue to do what they have done so far." Altobelli doesn't mince words: in this final sprint, the pressure is all on Antonio Conte's team. "Napoli has almost always been first in the standings, now they have the championship in their grasp. For Inter the situation is different, they have everything to gain and nothing to lose. And this psychological difference can count for a lot".
But the charm of this Serie A it doesn't stop at the fight for the championship. “With two rounds to go – Altobelli underlines – we don't know yet who will go to Europe and who will be relegated. This says a lot about the level reached by our championship. It is hard-fought, uncertain and beautiful to follow. A perfect advertisement for Italian football in Europe".
