Table-topping Napoli take on newly promoted Como.
Napoli, riding high at the top of Serie A, look to extend their dominance against newcomers Como, who seek to defy history and shake up the standings in Friday’s clash at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.
Napoli
No other Italian side has turned as many heads as Napoli since Serie A really got going. The Blues are surprisingly seated at the top of the league table with 13 points, one point ahead of their closest rivals, second-placed Juventus.
A 2-0 win over Monza last weekend helped Napoli bounce back to winning ways, having remained unbeaten in five Serie A games. Since their opening day defeat against Verona, Napoli have picked up an impressive 13 points from a possible 15.
A home game against Como, whom Napoli have a fine record against, couldn't have come at a better time. Conte’s side is looking to go into the international break on the back of a win, having won each of their 11 home Serie A matches against Como.
In addition, Napoli have won 77% of their matches against Como in Serie A, which is the highest winning percentage against teams they have faced more than six times in the league. A 4—3—3 setup with Romelu Lukaku, Matteo Politano, and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia in attack is expected.
Politano and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who were both on target against Monza, will be looking to put their names on the scoresheet once again.
Como
Newcomers Como earned themselves a respectable 10th place after recent back-to-back victories, following last weekend's 3-2 win over Verona. Following their return to the top flight after a 21-year absence, Como have settled into life in Serie A, earning themselves as many wins and draws as they have in defeats [2W, 2D, 2L].
Friday’s fixture against Napoli will offer the newcomers an opportunity to climb four places up the table temporarily, should they get the better of the table-topping side. However, Como’s record against Napoli will be a source of concern for Cesc Fàbregas, who surprisingly has only a 29% winning rate with the club, having managed 7 games in all competitions [2W, 3D, 2L].
Napoli are the opponent against which Como have achieved the fewest victories in the competition. The visitors have picked up only one victory, alongside four draws and 17 defeats against the Azzurri [1W, 4D, 17L].
Patrick Cutrone, who bagged a brace in the 3-2 win over Verona, will keep his place at the end of the 4—2—3—1 when Como visits the Diego Armando Maradona. The Lariani have no injury worries ahead of Friday’s game.
