Stadio Giuseppe Meazza will welcome a game that has two teams battling for the same goal, a Champions League spot. Napoli is on second place after Juventus, and there are only four points separating them and AC Milan.
Milan are 3 in Serie A with 58 point from 31 matches which leaves them 4 points behind Napoli and 6 points ahead of 4
placed Fiorentina. They are undefeated in their last 13 league matches
and have won 4 of their last 5, conceding in just one match. It really
is a sensational run they have been on this calendar year and are real
threats to take 2.
Napoli is out of a victory against Genoa, when Pandev and Blerim Dzemaili managed to score in the first half, and the team closed the defensive to keep the scoring table unchanged even though Genoa
had a missed penalty in the second half through Edison Cavani. If we
are to remember the last match between these two teams, we would see how
much better Milan got at coming back from behind. Napoli were leading by two goals, however El Shaarway scored both goals that brought the Rossonerri hope.
Napoli plays some really good games when being away; let’s take
for example their 3-5 win against Torino. They conceded 28 goals this
season, while Milan managed to score the same amount; and then Napoli
lost 9 times in Serie A, Milan only four. Cavani and Hamsik are the players Napoli relies on to score, or at least to assist to any potential goals, while Milan has Balotteli, Shaarway and Boateng.
Possible line-ups:
AC MILAN: Abbiati, Abate, Mexes, Zapata, Constant, Boateng, Montolivo, Muntari, Niang, Pazzini, El Shaarawy.
NAPOLI: De Sanctis, Campagnaro, Cannavaro, Britos, Maggio, Behrami, Dzemaili, Zuniga, Hamsik, Pandev, Cavani.
