Like 2020 in general, it's been a strange year for Serie A.
For the first time since 2009, both Milan clubs are at the top of the Italian league standings heading into the winter break.

Neither of them has won it since, in a nine-year domination of Serie A by Juventus, but Milan ends the year one point ahead of second-place Inter.
Juventus uncharacteristically finds itself in sixth, trailing Milan by 10 points albeit having played a match less.
Milan can't quite claim the symbolic title of "Winter Champion," however, as that goes to the team top of Serie A at the halfway stage.
With the season having started later than usual because of the effects of the coronavirus pandemic on the last campaign only 14 of the 19 rounds making up the first half of the season have been played.
