If the Azzurri lose the next two and Chivu wins them all, the Nerazzurri could win the title as early as April 26th away against Torino
Now it just seems like a question of “when”. Inter took advantage of Napoli’s draw in Parma, extending the score to +9 with six matchdays remaining. On Sunday evening, leaving the stadium, the Nerazzurri had already started calculating on when they could arithmetically celebrate the tricolor number 21. Eighteen points up for grabs. Ten are enough for Inter.
scudetto napoli: the scenarios

Meanwhile, the calendar: Inter must challenge Cagliari, Turin, Parma, Lazio, Verona And Bologna (three home games and three away games). Napoli will face Lazio, Cremonese, Como, Bologna, Pisa and Udinese (four home games). If Chivu won the next two and Napoli lost both they would be +15 with four matches to go, making the Italian recovery impossible. Ergo, with a similar scenario, they would become Italian champions on April 26th by beating Torino away. The same goes if Napoli, instead of losing, drew the next two matches. There the points would be 13. Here too it is impossible to catch Chivu.
from Lazio to Lazio

Another scenario concerns possible successes. If Inter and Napoli win all their next matches indefinitely, the Nerazzurri would become Italian champions by beating Lazio at the Olimpico on the third to last matchday (they could also draw). The team with which they drew last year, saying goodbye to the championship race. In fact, with two days to play, it would be impossible for Napoli to regain their 9-point deficit. In any case, Napoli must win them all to hope to reach Chivu. Inter’s Scudetto is not far away.
