Juventus have no equal in the Serie A

Juventus have been unrivaled in the Serie A since 2011, having won an astonishing seven league titles in a row.

Their frightening dominance in the Italian top flight has reached a new level with the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo, as they sit on top of the table with 40 points from 14 games - eight ahead of second-placed Napoli.

Juventus have netted 31 goals and conceded eight, leading to a +23 goal difference. They also boast the third meanest defence in entire Europe.

Juventus have won all of their last five games; they have drawn just once in all the 14 games they have played in the league this season.

They will come up against Inter Milan, Torino, Roma, Atlanta and Sampdoria in December.

Barring Inter and Roma, there is hardly any cause for the Old Lady to worry about, as they continue marching towards their eight successive Serie A title.


#1 Manchester City

Pep Guardiola's men have replicated their swashbuckling brand of football this season and look downright unstoppable at the moments.

The Cityzens are sitting atop Europe's toughest league with 41 points from 15 games. They are yet to lose a game in the English top-flight and look set to try and match Arsenal's Invincibles record set back in 2004.

Manchester City have scored the second-highest tally of goals (45) and are the second meanest defence in the continent, having conceded only seven goals. They boast an impressive goal difference of +35, again the second best amongst all the European heavyweights.

Ad

Guardiola's giants have won all of their last five games and are providing a substantial challenge for the league title.

They will face Chelsea, Everton, Crystal Palace, Leicester and Southampton in the remainder of the month. Those fixtures, barring the away game against Chelsea, will hardly impediment them in their run for a successive Premier League title.
