Napoli vs Juventus

ALVISE CAGNAZZO: Napoli vs Juventus is a colossal clash between the top two sides in the Serie A table. It is also a clash between two different ...

The No 1 danger for Juventus in the match is him, given his strength of character and amazing technique. This ancient style of play has allowed Juventus to move from seventh to second in the Serie A table. Both are in their first year at a top Italian club and they have very similar attributes. Napoli has a phenomenal player that Carlo Ancelotti would like at Real Madrid. If they can do that avoid defeat, Max Allegri's team will retain a hope of overhauling the leaders. Napoli tied down midfielder Lobotka for another four years through until 2027. Where tonight's top-of-the-table Serie A clash will be won and lost It is also a clash between two different philosophies who both have Scudetto ambitions. Napoli is built in the image and likeness of Spalletti with a very solid four-man defence despite their full-backs being very aggressive in the last 40 metres of the pitch. Spalletti asks his players to have total control of the game and orders his defenders to be very tall when Napoli have to crush opponents in their own half. Napoli now need to be fearless in their pursuit of the results they need and maintain a continuity that they haven't ever managed in their post-Maradona existence. Napoli have a seven-point cushion at the Serie A summit and could move 10 clear of Juventus

Diego won trophies and we try to reproduce that same mentality." Then, of course, if we need to change something, we have substitutes and many quality players on the bench who can bring fresh energy and ideas to alter the course of the match." "We will approach the match without listening to what is being said from the outside and try to put into practice the things we work on week after week. "We must not be afraid of any match. I can only learn from him." They are not a club that is content with finishing in the top four. Ecuador: 1:45 p.m. Colombia: 1:45 p.m.

It's a blockbuster, as league leaders Napoli take on second-place Juventus in a battle at the top of the Serie A table on Friday night.

They will return to league action with a home game against Gian Piero Gasperrini's Atalanta in a tricky-looking fixture, followed by another league encounter against Monza at the Allianz Stadium to cap off the month of January. Napoli have the best attack in the Italian top-flight, having found the back of the net 39 times so far this season, while Juventus have the meanest defence in the league, conceding just 7 league goals as of yet. Napoli's outstanding season has been helped by their imperious home form, as they have yet to taste defeat in front of their fans.

The Bianconeri started the season off poorly with disappointing results in both Serie A and Champions League campaigns. The European journey has been a disaster ...

The Italian coach, despite multiple key players injured, decided to shift from a four-man defense to a three-man defense, and from that moment on Juventus didn't concede a single goal in Serie A. American International Weston McKennie, despite the interest of multiple European clubs, was also a starter and Allegri played him in different roles: as a winger but also as a central midfielder alongside Adrien Rabiot and Manuel Locatelli. Juventus lost their crown to Inter Milan for the first time in nine years and the feeling was that Allegri needed to restore the winning spirit in the environment. Juventus won trophies with both Maurizio Sarri (one Scudetto) and Andrea Pirlo (one Coppa Italia and one Super Cup) but the feeling around the club was different and Allegri was called back by President Andrea Agnelli to oversee a new cycle. That's the main reason why he was called back at the club in the summer of 2021 after a two-year break from coaching. The European journey has been a disaster, with Allegri's side eliminated in the group phase, losing twice against Benfica and Paris Saint Germain and also away against Maccabi Haifa.
