"Winter champions" Maurizio Sarri, the coach of "Napoli" who became the champion of winter, does not intend to rely on historically favorable statistics.
Over the past 23 years, only five clubs who were leading the tournament table at midseason failed to win the "Scudetto".
"Statistics are worthless. We have collected 96 points in two seasons and we see that we did not receive proper recognition.
Of course, this series is great, it is very important for the team to secure a place in the Champions League tournament, and accumulating 48 points gives hope to the club," said M. Sarri.
