Napoli, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 2-0 away defeat by Monza will have left the Napoli squad feeling a little deflated. They achieved 55% possession in that match and had 20 strikes at goal, with 7 hitting the target, up against Monza's tally of 10 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 4 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 4 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have been unable to score at home in 3 of their last 6 games; however, so far this season they have recorded 17 clean sheets from 35 games overall.
Napoli will take some comfort from having only lost 1 of their last 6 games, but having managed just 2 wins shows there's room for improvement.
On an individual basis, Victor Osimhen will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 23 goals in Napoli's 35 league games this season.
Inter Milan, Recent FormInter Milan have set themselves up nicely for this match by securing a 4-2 home win against Sassuolo in their previous league match. They came away from that fixture with a 51% share of the possession and clocked up 11 attempts on goal with 3 on target, in comparison to Sassuolo, who managed 16 attempts on goal, 5 of which were on target.
With 18 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, their manager Simone Inzaghi will be very pleased with his team's form going forward, but he will be casting a cautious eye over his defence, who have shipped 4 goals in the same period. When playing away from home, they have scored in 5 of their last 6 games and are on a run of 3 consecutive clean sheets.
They've had a good run of form recently, with 5 straight wins in a row, and are on an unbeaten run of 5 games.
Lautaro Martínez will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 6 goals in the last 6 league outings for Inter Milan.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Napoli, losing 1-0 to Inter Milan.
The Napoli defence has struggled against Nerazzurri in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 9 games.
This fixture has produced a draw on the last 2 occasions that these 2 sides have met at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona in the league, but Inter will hold a slight psychological advantage having been unbeaten there in their last 3 visits.
Edin Džeko has scored in each of Inter's last 0 league games against Napoli.
With only Hirving Lozano (Knee) and Mário Rui (Foot) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Luciano Spalletti will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
There is only really one injury concern for the Inter manager Simone Inzaghi ahead of this clash, with Milan Škriniar (Back) missing out, which gives Inzaghi a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
