Last season Juve won their first Scudetto title since 2002/03, and in doing so went the entire season unbeaten.

Heavy investment in the team proved worthwhile as manager Antonio Conte produced the title and Champions League football.

The question remains whether or not Juventus will be able to defend their crown this season?

AC Milan fought gallantly until the end of the season but subsequently relinquished their title by four points.

Meanwhile City rivals, Inter, endured a dreadful season last year, finishing sixth and missing out on Champions League football.

They also sacked two managers and are now under the leadership of Andrea Stramaccioni.

Both teams must improve next season, as failure to win the league is not acceptable for the two giants of Italian football.
The battle for Champions League qualification was fought until the last game of the Serie A season.

Udinese secured their spot in this year’s tournament, while Lazio, Napoli and Inter Milan just missed out.

The newseason will be just as invigorating, as teams will invest over the summer to enhance their chances of qualifying for the best European club competition in the world.

    Inter Milan’s miserable run of form makes them unbackable going into Sunday’s game against Parma. Inter are 2.14 to beat Parma at San Siro, and it's certainly not a price which makes much appeal. The difference between Parma and Inter's other recent conquerors, Bologna, Cagliari and Atalanta, is t...
