The difference between Atalanta who are ranked 4th and Napoli and Roma who are ranked 9th is not much different, only 4 points different. So it is true that the struggle for 4th place is more likely to occur between Atalanta, Fiorentina, Lazio, Bologna, Roma and Napoli. Because everything has a thin difference in points. This shows that this season is different from the previous season. This season is more competitive. although Napoli and Roma are not as good as last season. but other teams like Bologna and Fiorentina even have a good improvement. While the title will indeed be contested by Inter and Juve. While Milan can also be but it is quite difficult with the current point difference.
They have very small differences and the race among those clubs is more exciting because none of those clubs have stable form. With their stable forms, their rankings can be changed a lot after one or two match days. Fiorentina and Bologna have worse squads than Atalanta, Lazio, Roma and Napoli but they can make surprise that season ending.
They have less experience than competitors but years ago Udinese sometimes participated in top four so Fiorentina, Bologna can do it. Especially, Fiorentina just had a Conference League final match and their quality is improving.
