Following AC Milan’s narrow 1-0 victory over city rivals Inter in the recent Derby della Madonnina, many believe the Serie A title race for the 2025-26 season has been reignited. Pervis Estupinan’s first-half goal secured a crucial three points for the Rossoneri. Despite the defeat, Inter still holds a seven-point lead at the top of the league table with only ten matches remaining, with Milan identified as the primary contender capable of challenging Cristian Chivu’s side.
While Inter maintains control of the league standings, an analysis of the remaining schedules suggests they face a marginally less demanding path to the Scudetto. Inter’s remaining opponents have an average league position of 11.2, compared to Milan’s 10.7, indicating Milan’s schedule is statistically tougher.
Inter still has significant encounters ahead, including home games against Atalanta and Roma, and away fixtures at Como and Bologna on the final day. Milan, on the other hand, will face formidable challenges such as away trips to Napoli and Atalanta, and a crucial home tie against Juventus.
Both teams have five home and five away games left, and both will play two matches against teams currently in the top six. The intensity of the final stretch promises a thrilling conclusion to the Serie A season.
