"Inter missed the chance to move five points clear at the summit after Scott McTominay's goals pegged them back twice in a tightly-contested affair at San Siro. Federico Dimarco opened the scoring in the ninth minute for Inter before McTominay restored parity, but Inter retook the lead thanks to Hakan Calhanoglu's 73rd-minute penalty."
"The Opta supercomputer has assigned Inter a 69.6% chance of lifting the title, more than any other team in the division, but Napoli (14.9%), Milan (9.4%), Roma (3%), Juventus (3.4%) and even sixth-placed Como (0.3%) are all in with a shout, according to its season simulations. "I think there's four or five teams in this title race, I don't even know what the points gap is, just that we, Napoli, Bologna and Milan all have a game in hand," Chivu told reporters."
Inter drew 2-2 with Napoli at San Siro, with Federico Dimarco and a Hakan Calhanoglu penalty scoring for Inter and Scott McTominay scoring twice for Napoli. The draw prevented Inter from moving five points clear at the top and continued a run without wins against Napoli, Milan and Juventus since the start of last season (D6 L7). Seven points separate Inter and fifth-placed Juventus, and several teams have games in hand. Opta simulations still favor Inter heavily but list Napoli, Milan, Roma, Juventus and even Como with outside chances. Inter posted higher xG (1.45 from 13 shots) than Napoli (0.74 from seven attempts) and conceded mistakes after taking the lead.
