It shapes up to be a memorable Scudetto race between old foes Inter Milan and Napoli, with historic playoffs on the cards.

Per Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the two times could collide in a first title-deciding fixture since 1964.

Never before or after has this match been played.

However, chances are slim, given both teams must drop points in the last two rounds to make it happen.

Even though it’s an unlikely turn of events, that’s still a possibility.

Date Set for Potential Inter Milan vs Napoli Scudetto Playoff

With the Champions League final on the horizon, Lega Serie A has tentatively scheduled the potential playoff for Sunday 25.

Napoli boss Antonio Conte would ideally finish things off in the last two games.

Yet, Genoa’s recent visit to Stadio Diego Maradona showed the Partenopei are not immune to slip-ups.

Meanwhile, Inter are building a head of steam.

Indeed, Simone Inzaghi has rallied his troops after a few setbacks, making the Nerazzurri look formidable again.

Napoli are still in control, but their lead is fragile, which increases the likelihood of a late-season drama.
