Of course, Milan and Juventus couldn't meet up to be among the title contenders this season because of their inconsistencies, and not having the zeal to improve their performance in order for them to meet up to the standards of Napoli and Inter. It was towards the end of last season that I had the feelings Juventus will not be among the top four this season due to the constant decline in their performance.
If we look at the number of matches that have been played by both teams at this time, of course Milan and Juventus could be very close and will also compete with each other to be in the top five of the standings. While for the top four of the standings, there will still be two teams that could be obstacles, namely Fiorentina and Lazio, where both teams are also not completely consistent this season but are still possible to stay in the top four of the standings until the end of the season.
