Will Juventus win their 9th Serie A trophy in a row?

Italian Serie A soccer championship, or “calcio” as italians call it, was suspended in the 26th matchday of the 2019-2020 season, with no other than mighty Juventus as league leader. However, this hasn’t been the “typical” Juventus season so far, and other teams, like Internazionale in the beginning, or Lazio, more recently, have been threatening the chance of success for the team to achieve their main goal of this season, which is to win their 9th consecutive Serie A title.

Giannis and LeBron Top the NBA MVP Ladder

It’s been a long and quite exciting NBA season so far, where we’ve seen many teams and players go even beyond what we expected, in the hopes of clinching a playoff spot. About 62 to 64 games have been played by each team so far, and that means we’re very close to the end of the regular season; 18 to 20 games or so. Nothing is set on stone yet; however, we’re starting to get a first glance of what the post season could look like, teams are starting to claim their spots, and of course, superstars are doing their best to help their teams achieve the ultimate goal, which is to get to the NBA Finals and fight for a ring.
