In the 28th round of the Italian Serie A, Napoli and Torino will play a match on March 6, 2026. To keep up with their rivals in the race for a spot among the leaders, the hosts need nothing but a win.
The top club from Naples, after Conte’s arrival, has not only improved but last spring even won the championship race against Inter! In January, they also added the Super Cup, but setbacks followed.
First, in the Champions League, the Italians failed to progress from their group, then lost to Como on penalties in the cup. Now, their focus remains on Serie A, where the realistic goal is to battle for at best third place, especially after losing to direct rivals Atalanta. They did, however, beat Verona afterwards.
The Turin team last season finished with 44 points, only ahead of Udinese on additional indicators, with a modest reward of 11th place. Moreover, even reaching that this season will be tough, as the results have been lackluster. They did manage a cup run, including beating Roma, but ultimately lost to Inter in the quarterfinals. At least they managed to defeat Lazio 2-0 in the last round.
The reigning “scudetto” holders currently average 1.52 goals scored and 1.04 conceded per game. Baroni’s side have negative stats, averaging one goal for and 1.74 goals against per match.
