Inter Milan on the Verge of Winning 20th Serie A Title After 3-Year Wait

Inter Milan is positioned to claim the 2023-24 Serie A championship, marking their first victory in the last three years. Following their previous triumph in the 2020-21 Scudetto under the leadership of Antonio Conte, the Nerazzurri encountered a setback in clinching the title during Simone Inzaghi's initial two seasons as head coach. In these seasons, their rivals AC Milan and Napoli emerged as the champions of the Serie A. Nevertheless, an exhilarating streak that commenced in August has propelled the Italian team towards the brink of clinching their first Serie A title under Inzaghi's management.

Current Standing and Feats at Stake

Inter Milan currently dominates the Serie A table with a substantial 14-point lead over AC Milan and an impressive 20-point advantage over Juventus. With merely eight games remaining in the ongoing season, all teams still have the opportunity to secure 24 points. Notably, two pivotal matches are scheduled, with Inter facing AC Milan on April 21, followed by a showdown between Juventus and AC Milan one week later. If AC Milan manages to triumph in all upcoming matches, Inter must secure a minimum of 14 points to guarantee their victory. The prospective climax could unfold in the Derby della Madonnina next month, etching an unforgettable day for Inter enthusiasts worldwide.

Path to Victory

While the Nerazzurri have the potential to clinch the title before the Derby della Madonnina, it is contingent on AC Milan and Juventus suffering consecutive losses while Inter secures wins against Udinese and Cagliari. Alternatively, Inzaghi's squad might seize the title in the subsequent week after the Derby della Madonnina, coinciding with AC Milan's visit to Juventus at the Allianz Stadium in Turin or during their match against Sassuolo as visitors.

Remaining Fixtures and Points Tally

• Inter - 79 points
• AC Milan - 65 points
• Juventus - 59 points

Possible Records to Break

Inter still has the opportunity to shatter remarkable records, including the highest points accumulated in a single season. The existing record, set by Antonio Conte's Juventus during the 2011-12 season, stands at 102 points. Presently, Inter holds 79 points, necessitating a gain of at least 23 points in the remaining eight games. Additionally, the Nerazzurri can target achieving the greatest goal difference in the league's history (currently at 57 after 30 games, with the record at 73), fortifying their defense (14 goals conceded, with the record at 20), securing the most away wins (currently at 12, with the record at 16), and establishing the record for clean sheets in a season (currently at 19, with the record at 21).
