The battle for the Champions League will go down to the wire, as Juventus climbed into third place, Roma caught Milan, with Como just two points behind in the Serie A table.

While Inter already won the Scudetto with three rounds to spare, the rest of the top four is all to play for going into the final two rounds.

Even Napoli could get sucked back into trouble if they fail to beat Bologna on Monday evening.

Milan’s 3-2 home defeat to Atalanta has seen them leapfrogged by Juventus into third place, and caught on 67 points by Roma, who completed an extraordinary comeback to win 3-2 at Parma in stoppages.

Como’s 1-0 victory away to already-relegated Verona has put them right back in the hunt too on 65 points, only three behind third place.

If Napoli lose to Bologna on Monday, then there will be just five points separating second from sixth with two games left to play.

It is therefore worth noting what those final fixtures are, as they will be decisive.

Rafael Leao was booked tonight and will therefore be suspended when Milan visit Genoa.
