After the Roman derby we get a nice poster on Sunday between the number one and number two of last season. At the moment, the difference between the two teams seems much larger than it was then, as Napoli is eleventh. Last August, we saw a true spectacle in Turin, when Juve won 4-3, partly due to Koulibaly’s own goal in injury time.
Napoli:
The football fans from Naples hoped that their favorite team would perform again after the trainer change. Meanwhile, chairman De Laurentiis will also see that the problem did not lie with the trainer, even under former midfielder Gennaro Gattuso it is not running at the Azzuri. All three league duels were lost this year, after Inter and Lazio, Fiorentina was too strong last weekend. Chiesa was allowed to take the penalty in the penalty area and scoring the 1-0, his direct opponent Di Lorenzo was completely wrong and did not go wrong for the first time this year. Despite a number of good chances for Milik, the Partenopei did not get close to a result.
Last Tuesday there was finally something to celebrate again in Naples, Napoli managed to win 1-0 against Lazio in the Coppa Italia thanks to a hit by Insigne in the second minute. The duel was characterized by shots on both sides of the team and red cards for both Napoli player Hysaj and Lazio player Leiva, but no more goals were scored. The Neapolitans will be happy with the victory as it may still have the best chances of winning a European football through the cup, but Gattuso cannot be reassured given the game played by his team.
Juventus:
The almost 35-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo takes his team in tow week after week and has already scored eight games in a row. He started the year with his first hat trick in Serie A and last weekend he scored two goals against Parma. Under his leadership, Juve managed to win the last five league matches and it is now four points away from Inter, which spilled both against Atalanta and Lecce this year. In addition to the good competition series, the Old Lady also managed to survive two cup rounds this month. The Portuguese star player was rested during the game against Udinese, Juve still won 4-0.
This week it also won a big victory. Cristiano Ronaldo opened the score against AS Roma within half an hour and thanks to Betancur and Bonucci it was already 3-0 at half time. AS Roma started strongly in the second half but did not go further than one goal, so that the Bianconeri can take on AC Milan or Torino in the semi-final of the Coppa Italia.
PREDICTION: Both teams to score / YES @ 1,54
