What happens if two or more teams finish level on points in race for UCL spot in Serie A

The head-to-head primato will determine which team qualifies for the Coppa Campioni if two finish level on points, but if there are three with the same amount, then the Classifica avulsa applies.

The race for a Coppa Campioni spot in Serie A is getting wild. Six teams are still involved, including four separated by just one point. Results from the latest round left Juventus, Roma and Lazio level on 63 points, while Bologna are just one behind.

Juventus currently sit fourth merely because of a better goal difference, but they still have to face Lazio in the next round.

As Calciomercato.com and other media reports, the head-to-head primato is the first criterion considered if two teams finish with the same number of points. If the head-to-head primato is also the same, then the qualification will be decided based on:

Goal difference in the head-to-head.
General goal difference
Number of goals scored
Draw

If three or more sides earn the same number of points, the Classifica avulsa determines the qualified team. In the current scenario, it would be a mini-league involving Lazio, Roma, and Juventus based on results obtained in games played against each other.

In this case, the criterion considered would be:

Points
Goal difference in the mini-league
General goal difference
General number of goals scored
Draw

Ranieri’s Roma currently have six points in the Classifica avulsa with Juventus and Lazio. The Bianconeri follow the Giallorossi with five points while Lazio have only one, but the Bianconcelesti and Juventus will meet for the second time this season in the next round.

Determining the Serie A winner or a relegated team if two teams finish level on points would be entirely different, as, in both cases, the teams involved will require a playoff.
