Outright predictions for Serie A 2026/2027: who will become the champion and top scorer of Italy

Among the last of the European leagues to kick off the season is the Italian Serie A. The main intrigue of the 2026/2027 campaign is whether Inter will confirm their status as the best team in the country once again. Other points of interest include how Goncalo Ramos will perform in Milan, whether Como can handle two major tournaments for the first time in its history, and whether Frosinone can keep up with the pace of the elite division.

This article compiles the latest predictions for the Italian Serie A 2026/2027 season, bookmaker odds, and the most interesting bets on the main outcomes of the Italian championship.

Odds for the top scorer of Serie A 2026/2027 season

Lautaro Martinez will be the top scorer

Odds: 2.70

The Argentine remains the main attacking reference not only for Inter, but for the entire Serie A. Even with 17 goals (only his first two seasons in Italy and the 2024/2025 campaign were worse), he managed to win the top scorer race. It seems that with the arrival of Goncalo Ramos in the league and Donyell Malen's first full season, the Argentine under the pressure of competition can return to scoring 20+ goals per season and take the Capocannoniere award again.

Goncalo Ramos' total goals over 13.5

Odds: 1.80

Just as Martinez is a benchmark for Inter, the Portuguese should become the same for the other part of Milan. The stakes are high for Ramos, who moved from PSG for 74 million euros. If the forward managed to score 10-11 goals in France as a substitute, then with regular appearances in the starting lineup and 60-70 minutes on average per match, the 14-goal mark seems achievable.

Inter will be the best team in Lombardy

Odds: 1.50

This seems like a fairly reliable option at a reasonable odds. Perhaps the only competitor in this line is Milan. But it's hard to believe that they (let alone Como or Atalanta) will be able to surpass their fiercest opponent over the long haul. Inter is used to playing in two or three tournaments, the team has maintained a stable core and has made some targeted reinforcements.

Napoli will score less than 75.5 points

Odds: 1.85

Interestingly, the traditionally authoritative mathematical model Tactix has predicted average points scored in the new campaign. And if the model's expectations for other teams are almost in line with bookmaker quotes, then Napoli's bookmakers believe too strongly. Tactix, on the other hand, believes that Napoli will potentially stop at 66.7 points for the season.

Let's be honest: Napoli's 76 points last campaign were due to the slip-ups of competitors who were more concerned about making the top 4 than fighting for something high. In the new season, the competition for second place is sure to be more interesting, both from Milan and Juventus, and even from Roma. It is likely that it will not be easy for Napoli to repeat last season's success.

Juventus will finish the season in the top-4

Odds: 1.45

Juventus is not aiming for the championship, the team is much more important to regain its status as a regular participant in the Champions League. In Turin, the depth of the squad is guaranteed, young players in the offensive line are gradually gaining meat. Such elements of the building team should play into the hands over the course of the entire season, in which the main competitors await the meat grinder in the Champions League. Spalletti, on the other hand, may sometimes sacrifice European tournaments in favor of more global goals – returning to the Champions League through Serie A will be much easier than through winning the Europa League.

Como will finish the season above Atalanta

Odds: 1.55

The biggest risks for bookmakers are associated with underestimating Como. Yes, their position is understandable – Fabregas' team will be torn between two tournaments for the first time. But the Italians should have enough passion not to fail at the general stage of the Champions League. And any result there will be perceived adequately: if there's no playoffs – it's okay, if there is – well, we'll play some more.

Now, it's more important for Como to secure at least a top-6 spot among the elite of Italian football. Among the advantages that could put them above Atalanta, which hasn't solved all its problems yet, are last season's results, the quality of the squad for the top-6 fight, and a high level of play. But the main thing: the resource of Cesc himself, as Fabregas seems not yet fully understood – he is yet to test himself and the team in a new role. The main hopes in Bergamo are associated with Sarri and Scamacca. But any disruption of either of the two mechanisms will automatically exclude them from the fight for the top six.

Monza will be relegated to Serie B

Odds: 1.57

Probably, one of the two main candidates for relegation. And if it's hard to say anything coherent in favor of Frosinone's survival, Monza still has a chance. However, after serious investments, the return to the elite is accompanied by more pragmatic talks. There are questions about the depth of the squad and the quality for the fight, Monza has little experience in nerve-racking matches, and the one that was before is already hard to remember even in a stretch through the prism of the upcoming campaign.

Frosinone will finish last

Odds: 2.25

Finally, a bet with a decent odds, but almost without competition. If Monza will fight, then with Frosinone, alas, there are fears that the team will be relegated from Serie A prematurely – about five-six rounds before the end. The team's previous three appearances in Serie A ended in relegation, and they have less experience fighting in the elite than any of their competitors. The big hope is on the organized football of the outsider, but while opponents will be scoring at least one point even with the grandees, Frosinone will only have to cling to victories with direct competitors.

Scores24's prediction for the winner of Serie A 2026/2027

Inter will become the champion

Odds: 2.20

It's hard to find an alternative to the old champion. Even if we start from the Milanese themselves, there have been absolutely no changes for better or worse, the structure of Cristian Chivu's team's game is not disrupted, and the attack will still be represented by Lautaro and Thuram.

One could refer to the tight competition, but it's enough to look at last year's table: +11 from Napoli. The main thing is to score points with competitors who have become stronger. One point from Napoli and none from MilanThe fans will not forgive anymore.

Potential difficulties include a successful run in the Champions League. In the spring, they were "lucky" to be knocked out by Bude/Glimt and could focus on the domestic arena. However, a potential semi-final or even final, as two years ago, could greatly affect the fight for the Scudetto.

One way or another – there are enough arguments in the form of squad stability, Kivu's work, and squad depth to believe in another championship.
