The 2024-25 Serie A season is off to a thrilling start, with the usual giants vying for the title and underdogs looking to replicate Bologna’s surprise Champions League qualification from last year.

Inter and Juventus are considered frontrunners, but AC Milan and Napoli are poised to challenge their dominance.

**AC Milan Looks to Build on Derby Win:** Following their impressive victory over Inter in the Derby della Madonnina, AC Milan will be aiming for their second consecutive win when they host Lecce on Friday, September 27th. Christian Pulisic, who scored the opening goal in the derby and has been in stellar form with four goals and two assists in six appearances, will be key for the Rossoneri.

**Inter Seek Redemption After Derby Loss:** The Nerazzurri, meanwhile, are looking to bounce back from their first loss of the season after their derby disappointment. They face Udinese on Saturday, September 28th, but will be without the injured Nicolo Barella.

**Juventus Aim for Top Spot:** Antonio Conte’s Juventus side is off to a strong start, winning three of their last four games. A victory over Monza on Saturday could see them top the table, as they currently sit just one point behind Torino.
