A key match in Serie A as both teams are battling for the top positions. With Napoli in 3rd position and Milan placed 1st, this promises to be an exciting meeting. Read on to find out more!
Napoli and Milan should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Napoli form and stats
Napoli, who have the the best goal difference (+7) at home in Serie A, must be fairly happy with 6 points from their first three Serie A games here at Stadio San Paolo, Napoli.
Napoli are returning here after visiting Bologna in a Serie A game and winning with a 1-0 scoreline. Victor Osimhen scored the goal(s). A strong away win before that one, visiting Rijeka and winning 2-1.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Rijeka are coming to town in four days.
Napoli always seem capable of creating a buzz here at Stadio San Paolo, Napoli with 10 goals in 3 league games. Napoli have conceded 3 in these home matches.
Milan form and stats
Milan are yet to lose a point on their Serie A travels this season with 3 wins from 3 away games.
There were no winners in Milan's previous match, a Serie A home game that ended 2-2 vs Hellas Verona (placed 8th). A 0-3 loss hosting Lille before that.
The match against Hellas Verona looked like a defeat for Milan, but they did not accept the outcome and clawed their way back to 2-2. Zlatan Ibrahimović equalized in the 90th minute.
The schedule is very tough for Milan now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Europa League game at Lille is waiting in only four days.
The Milan manager S. Pioli has got the team scoring on the road, with 6 away goals in 3 league matches. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (2 so far).
