👉 Hello, my friends. Here are the 2022-2023 Italian Serie A Week 37 RESULTS / Thirty-seventh Round on Friday 26, Saturday 27, and Sunday 28 May 2023. We have one more game after this round to end the Season.
This Round starts with the news that Inter won the Coppa Italia Frecciarossa Final defeating Fiorentina on Wednesday 24 May.
✅ Here is the situation: 👉🏆🇮🇹 Napoli won the 2022-23 Serie A Scudetto on Thursday 4 May 2023 after the 1-1 draw with Udinese.
Verdict – Relegation. After 11 seasons in Serie A, Sampdoria is arithmetically relegated to Serie B 2023-24 after losing the Serie A Week 34 against Udinese.
Cremonese will return to Serie B next season after 17th-placed Spezia drew at Lecce on Sunday, sealing their relegation with two games remaining in the season. Spezia reached 31 points. Mathematically speaking, Cremonese in the 19th place with 24 points, can no longer leapfrog them for safety.

Saved: Lecce saved to remain in Serie A after defeating Monza.
✅ 10 Serie A Games Completed
⚽️ Serie A Top Scorer up to Week 37 (Updated on Sunday 28 May 2023)
Good news for Inter securing their place in next season’s Champions League 2023-24 after a 3-2 win over Atalanta. Inter have remained unbeaten in their last 9 home matches against Atalanta in Serie A (W6 D3): only between May 1964 and January 1985 did they do better (11 games in a row). Inter scored two goals in the first 3 minutes of play in a single Serie A match for the first time since 5 January 1941 against Roma. Atalanta conceded two in the first three minutes for the first time in the competition.
Milan obtained the second consecutive victory after the one against Sampdoria and arithmetically qualified for the next Champions League with one match before the end of the championship. Pioli’s team can still finish third, but to overcome Inter they will have to win against Verona on the last day and hope that the Nerazzurri lose on the Turin field. A second defeat in a row, however, for Juventus, who thus remain in seventh place in the standings, one point behind Roma in sixth and two behind Atalanta in fifth. To get to the Europa League, Juventus will have to win away against Udinese and hope for missteps by the Giallorossi with Spezia and the Bergamo players with Monza.
For the first time in their history in Serie A, Salernitana have gone seven straight home matches without defeat in the competition (W4, L3).
Torino have won four consecutive away games without conceding for the fourth time in a single Serie A championship (previously in 1935/36 and twice in 1942/43). Torino have won 31 points in 19 away games in this championship (W9, D4, L6), the record for away grenades in the era of three points for a win in a single Serie A championship.
Empoli’s goal, which came after 95 minutes and 26 seconds, was the most recent for the Tuscans in Serie A since 2004/05 (as of when data is available).
Napoli had not drawn a Serie A match after going two goals up since 1 December 2021 (2-2 v Sassuolo). Bologna had not drawn a league game after going down by two goals since 23 December 2020 (2-2 v Atalanta). Bologna (51 in 2022/23) passed the 50-point mark in a Serie A championship for the first time since 2011/12, when they reached 51 and finished in 9th place.
Lecce have not conceded a goal in two consecutive Serie A games for the first time since April 2012, with Coach Serse Cosmi. First error from the penalty spot for Monza, the Brianza players have scored five of the six penalties taken in this Serie A TIM season. Lecce defeated Monza and got their salvation.
Lazio have won both of their seasonal matches against Cremonese in Serie A for the second time, after 1929/30. Sergej Milinkovic-Savic is the midfielder who has participated in the most goals in this Serie A TIM season (17, the result of nine goals and eight assists).
Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
AC Milan, 4th position with 64 points and a positive goal difference of +18
Juventus, 7th position with 59 points and a positive goal difference of +23
Juventus lost their last home game while AC Milan won the Serie A Week 37 game on Sunday 28 May 2023 at the Allianz Stadium in Turin, Italy. Milan obtained the second consecutive victory after the one against Sampdoria and arithmetically qualified for the next Champions League with one match before the end of the championship. Pioli’s team can still finish third, but to overcome Inter they will have to win against Verona on the last day and hope that the Nerazzurri lose on the Turin field.
A second defeat in a row, however, for Juventus, who thus remain in seventh place in the standings, one point behind Roma in sixth and two behind Atalanta in fifth. To get to the Europa League, the bianconeri will have to win away against Udinese and hope for missteps by the Giallorossi with Spezia and the Bergamo players with Monza.
Milan have won both seasonal matches against Juventus in Serie A for the third time in the last 50 years, after 1990/91 and 2009/10. Olivier Giroud has scored 12 goals in a single season in Europe’s big five for the first time since 2016/17 (always 12, with Arsenal).
AC Milan opened the score in the 40th minute. Forward Olivier Giroud defeated Juventus goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny with a headed shot to the bottom right corner. The assist is by Davide Calabria.

✅ Stats before the game: After the 2-0 success in the first leg, Milan could win both seasonal matches against Juventus in Serie A for the third time in the last 50 years, after 2009/10 and 1990/91. Milan have kept clean sheets in their last two matches against Juventus in the league; only once in their Serie A history have the Rossoneri recorded a longer streak of consecutive clean sheets against the Bianconeri: four between 1988 and 1989. Juventus’ last success against Milan in the league dates back to 6 January 2021 (3-1 at the Meazza with Andrea Pirlo as coach); since then, the Rossoneri have gone unbeaten in their next four Serie A games (W2, D2) – the last time the Milanese went on a longer streak of unbeaten matches against the Bianconeri in the tournament was between 1990 and 1992 (five). After winning all of their first nine games at the Allianz Stadium against Milan in the league, Juventus have picked up just one point in their last two home games against the Rossoneri in Serie A; it is from the period between 2004 and 2006 that the bianconeri have not recorded any more internal matches without any success against Milan in the tournament (three in that case at the Delle Alpi).
Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
