Serie A has been a tumultuous season, with the top two teams in the European standings locked in and the fifth-placed team qualified for the Champions League. As a result, the race for the top five has become extremely fierce, and even Juventus, who have been in a slightly sluggish state, have joined the melee.
In such a season full of uncertainties, Lazio is gradually coming to the fore. In the early morning of April 20, Beijing time, they challenged Genoa away and finally took away the victory with a score of 1-0. In the game, Lazio showed strong attacking strength and constantly attacked the opponent. Finally, in the 67th minute, Alberto seized a great opportunity to easily send the ball into the opposition goal to seal the win for his team.
The win gave Lazio a solid recent Serie A record, with the exception of the defeat to Roma, who were almost unbeatable. Since the change of manager, the team's form has improved significantly, and there is a strong desire for a top-five spot. At the moment, they are in sixth place, but only three points behind Roma and could overtake them at any time.
Juventus, meanwhile, are not having an easy time. They drew again with their opponents in this round and have only one win in the last seven league games. Such performances raise concerns about their prospects. Despite currently sitting third, Juventus have to face a harsh reality: their form is inconsistent, and they will face a lot of tough opponents in the upcoming fixtures, and the slightest mistake could drop out of the top five.
Judging by the current situation, from Juventus in third place to Napoli in eighth, these six teams will be battling it out for three Champions League qualifications. Although Juventus are temporarily ahead, their advantage is not obvious. And Lazio, Atalanta and other teams are also trying to improve their form in the hope of coming out on top in this melee.
The rest of Serie A will be full of suspense and uncertainty, with each game potentially changing the whole situation. It will be interesting to see who qualifies for the Champions League. But regardless of the outcome, this battle for the top five will be a major attraction in Serie A this season.
