One of the scenarios that must be taken into consideration – underlines il Corriere della Sera (via MilanNews) – is the idea that Milan might finish level on points with both Napoli and Inter, which makes things a bit more complicated than the usual head-to-head between two sides who finish even.
The Rossoneri are ahead of Napoli and Inter in the event of an equal finish, the paper underlines, because if the trio finish on the same points it would go to a mini-table at that point which sees Milan in the lead with 7 points from the games against the other two, then Inter with 5 and Napoli with 4.
If Milan and Inter finish level then the red half of the city would celebrate thanks to the 1-1 in the derby on 7 November and a 2-1 win on 5 February for Pioli’s men, while against Napoli it would go down to goal difference as each team won 1-0 in head to head games.
