Serie A head to head records: Deciding European placement in 2024-25 | OneFootball

While there could be a play-off for the Scudetto, the race for European places might be decided by Serie A head-to-head record, as Atalanta, Bologna, Juventus, Lazio, Roma, Fiorentina and Milan fight for supremacy.

The Serie A rules state that while some situations need to be decided by a play-off such as the Scudetto or relegation, most positions will be dictated by other criteria.

Specifically, the first statistic they need to look at is their head-to-head record.

If more than two teams finish level on points, there is a ‘classifica avulsa’ drawn up – a mini-table of all their results against each other, with three points for a victory and one for a draw.

It is very possible we’ll see this brought into play considering there are six teams now crammed within an eight-point radius stretching from Atalanta in third to Fiorentina in eighth.

Some matches are yet to be played, so the scores could still change in the head-to-head record, but others are now set in stone.
