2024/25 European League championship battle: Serie A, Portuguese Super League and Eredivisie are in full swing

In the football field, there is nothing more exciting about the title in the final weeks of the season.

Unfortunately, this is not the case in the Premier League this year, and Liverpool is ahead of the crowd and has widened the gap with other teams. Bayern Munich and Barcelona easily lead their respective competitors in the Bundesliga and La Liga respectively, and the ownership of the Ligue 1 championship has been basically determined.

But there are three major European leagues in the last few weeks of the season, or one of them on the last weekend of the match, and the championship battle is extremely fierce.

The European Championships in 2024/25 season have entered a fierce stage:

Serie A first place: Naples - 78 points

Seoul, 2nd place: Inter Milan - 77 points

Defensive champion Inter Milan was originally the strongest team in Italy, but their journey in the European arena has distracted from the domestic league. Simeone Inzaghi's side will face Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final, but it has paid for it.

Neons and Blacks lost consecutively in the Serie A league in April and were eliminated by AC Milan in the Italian Cup semi-finals, which allowed Naples to take the opportunity to surpass them.

Antonio Conte's side lost only two league games in 2025, which put them to the top, although they drew with Genoa last Sunday, narrowing the lead to 1 point with two games left. Nevertheless, they achieved a significant recovery after a poor defending performance last season, thanks in large part to the performance of former Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay.

Naples will face Parma and Cagliari next, although both teams have strong momentum to relegate. Meanwhile, Inter Milan will face Lazio, who is chasing the top four, and Cuomo, who has won six consecutive victories but has no goal to pursue.

The most interesting thing about this Serie A championship battle is that if the two teams have the same points, the championship will be decided through the playoffs. The two teams' confrontation this season ended with a draw, and the winner will be determined by mutual records rather than goal difference.

Portuguese Premier League

First place: Portugal Sports-79 points

Second place: Benfica-79 points

This is exactly what we want to see; Portugal Sports and Benfica have the same points when there is one round left in the Portuguese top league. Whoever makes mistakes first will lose the championship.

Last weekend, the two clubs played a game that decided the title. Francesco Trilinkon opened the record three minutes later, then Vanjelis Pavlidis showed a magical performance, assisting Kerem Akturkogru to equalize the score.

The game ended with a draw, laying the foundation for the exciting final, with Portugal Sports going to face Victoria at home, while Benfica will challenge Braga away. Lisbon side Portugal Sports has a mutual record advantage as they won 1-0 in December, meaning Benfica needs Victoria's help to win the championship trophy on Saturday.

Eight days later, the two teams will meet in the Portuguese Cup final, which will be very exciting.

Dutch Football League One

No. 1: Ajax-74 points

Second: Eindhoven-73 points

Like Naples, Ajax recovered from his poor performance last season, just one step away from winning the championship. Last season, they missed the championship, with Eindhoven defeating Feyenoord, coached by Arne Slot.

This year, under the leadership of 36-year-old Italian coach Francesco Farioli, Amsterdam leads the Eredivisie with two games left. However, they have not won one of the last three games and are struggling toward the finish line. After defeating Eindhoven at the end of March, Ajax appears to be heading towards the 37th league title, but Peter Boss's side won five straight wins after that game, closing the points gap.

Eindhoven will next have to beat Hercules and Rotterdam Sparta and hope that Groningen or Twente will beat Ajax in the next two weeks.
