The most successful club in Italian football, Juventus have a whopping 36 Serie A titles to their name and the Turin team is regularly in the running for Italy's greatest prize. The Old Lady will have been disappointed with their 3rd place finish last season and Thiago Motta will be hoping his team can compete for the title this year. Dusan Vlahovic, Andrea Cambiaso, Kenan Yildiz, and Juve certainly have the talent in their squad to do well but it's not been without drama with the notable omission of Paul Pogba following a 4-year suspension after failing a drug test. Motta will be eager to concentrate on the players he does have at his disposal but so far, Juve has had mixed success at the beginning of this season.

It's been 16 months since Victor Osimhen's second-half equalizer brought Napoli their first Serie A title in 33 years and Antonio Conte's team has some serious firepower this year.
The Naples team has been doing some serious business this summer bringing in Alessandro Buongiorno from Torino for 35m EUR, Scott McTominay from Manchester United for 30.5m EUR, and Romelu Lukaku from Chelsea for 30m EUR to name just a few marquee signings.
Conte will be hoping that such investments will be fruitful in making the Diego Maradona Stadium a fortress once more.

Just one title behind their arch-rivals Inter, AC Milan have won the Serie A 19 times. Fans will be quietly confident of their chances for the Rossoneri after they won this season's first Milan derby and with good reason because manager Paulo Fonseca has an abundance of talent at his disposal with Christian Pulisic, Álvaro Morata, Rafael Leão, and Tammy Abraham all excellent footballer. Such optimism though will need to be backed up with more consistency should AC Milan challenge for this year's Serie A.

Bergamo-based Atalanta could be the dark horses of this year's Serie A and many bookmakers have them as the 5th favorite before the odds get stratospheric. Atalanta have an unfortunate record in that they hold the record for having played the most Serie A seasons without having ever won the league title. Manager Gian Piero Gasperini will be up against it if he wants to change that this season but he's made some interesting additions to the squad this summer having brought in Belgian attacking midfielder Charles De Ketelaere from AC Milan for a fee of 22m EUR, Mateo Retegui for the same fee from Genoa, and right back Raoul Bellanova from Torino for 20m EUR. There's certainly talent in this squad, but will it be enough to challenge for the title?
