Napoli vs AS Roma Match Preview and Team News
Napoli
Napoli hosts a very intriguing clash on Sunday, with the Partenopei welcoming Jose Mourinho’s Roma to town. Both clubs have been looking very good this season, and neither will want to drop points this weekend. But it is Napoli who are the favorites to possibly extend their lead at the top of the Serie A table. There has only been that one defeat to Inter to blemish their record this season, and even an in-form Roma should not be able to stop them from collecting three more points toward a possible Scudetto. If Napoli does win, it will probably be because Victor Osimhen has scored again. He is looking very dangerous this season and is a good bet to find the net against Roma. Piotr Zielinski plays well in the middle of the park, and he does not allow the opponent much action. Hirving Lozano is the engine of this team, his greatest virtue is speed, he has excellent ball control, and he can be satisfied with his performance.
AS Roma
The Giallorossi could well make this one interesting, though. Mourinho has seemingly decided to get on without Nicolò Zaniolo, who looks like leaving the club. But he does have some other very good attacking players – and Tammy Abraham is returning to form as well. Even though Roma should make a game of this one, it is unlikely that they will be able to do what no other club has managed to do this season and beat Napoli on their home turf. Eldor Shomurodov enjoys the field, and when he receives the ball and goes toward the goal, the opponent has problems because he passes through the defense like a fast train. Bryan Cristante plays great and does not allow the opponent to play in the middle of the field. Jose Mourinho will have to do without Turkish international Zeki Çelik, who has picked up a one-match suspension, so there will need to be a rejig of his starting XI. Tammy Abraham has looked better in the last few games, though, so he should start up front again.
