Di Canio predicts Juventus will finish season in 2nd place instead of Milan or Napoli

Paolo Di Canio has warned Milan and Napoli that Juventus are currently the best equipped side to finish the 2025-26 Serie A season in second place now that they have just a three-point deficit to make up heading into the final five matches of the campaign.

Juventus solidified their position in fourth place over the weekend following their 2-0 win over Bologna on Sunday night. That result means that they are now five points clear of both Como and Roma in fifth and sixth place respectively and now only three points behind Milan and Napoli in second and third.

It has been a particularly impressive run of form under head coach Luciano Spalletti, who has now picked up 16 points from his last six matches in the league.

Di Canio, speaking as an analyst on Sky Sport on Sunday evening, explained that Spalletti is perhaps Juventus’s ‘best signing’ of the last five years and feels that he is the main reason why the Bianconeri could finish the season in second place.
