The Italian football federation (FIGC) have today decided that the Serie A season will be decided by playoffs or an algorithm if the season is to stop again.

During the Italian football federal council meeting this afternoon plans were approved following 18 votes to three. If the season is to be stopped prior to July 10 then playoffs will be used but if it is after that date the algorithm will be used instead.

The 2019/20 Serie A season was brought to a halt back in March due to the Coronavirus outbreak and is scheduled to re-commence on June 20.

Inter have 13 fixtures left to play and currently trail league leaders Juventus by nine points although they do have a game in hand which would enable them to cut the gap between themselves and their arch rivals to six points.

Inter are scheduled to play lowly Sampdoria at San Siro this Sunday night with kick-off scheduled for 21:45.
