Is this because of a lack of parity in Serie A? It has the reputation of being a low scoring league so this surprises me. But a couple of lopsided results could schew the results. It will be interesting to see how this plays out over the season.

The scoring last season was in Serie A's favor as well. Milan alone scored 85 goals, and Juventus (71), Roma (70), and Inter (68) scored a lot too. To compare, the top four EPL teams were Chelsea and Man U with 72, Arsenal with 68, and Liverpool with 57. Overall, EPL teams in 2005-06 scored 944 goals compared to 991 in Serie A.

Either way, Portsmouth-Bolton is starting. Go Portsmouth!
