The Peninsula Problem

Italy's elongated shape means northern clubs face long trips south to Naples, and southern clubs make the reverse journey north to Turin or Milan. The longest fixture this season is Juventus vs Lecce โ€” 627 miles apart.

The northern cluster โ€” Juventus, Inter, AC Milan, Atalanta โ€” share relatively short trips to each other, but face marathon journeys to clubs in the deep south. The gap between the most and least-travelled club this season is 5,969 miles.
