Lega Serie A clubs are against the idea of the proposed algorithm to decide the standings in the event that the 2019/20 season cannot be finished according to a report in today’s print edition of Italian daily newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport.

The 20 clubs are against the algorithm put forward by the Italian football federation and the report also explains that the clubs are against the idea of playoffs deciding things at each end of the table too. The clubs would only consider playoffs in the event that the season cannot start back up at all.

Lega Serie A are thinking about the possibility of deciding things on an average points based system if the season cannot be finished, similarly to how other nations, such as Scotland, have decided things.

The average points system will be discussed today at a meeting convened by the Italian football federation and it will also be discussed tomorrow when Lega Serie A are set to meet.
