Napoli – Milan: pre-match analysis and injury status. Outside Osimhen

On April 2 at 20:45, on the pitch of Diego Armando Maradona, the fire match of the Matchday 28 of Serie A: Naples – Milan.

The Neapolitans will do everything to make the mathematical victory of the Scudetto extremely close, while the Milanese will fight with all their might not to leave the Champions League area.

Below is our pre-match analysis with the form of the two teams and information on injured players.

State of form of Napoli

Napoli occupies the first place in Serie A with 71 points, 19 more than Lazio, second with 52 points.

In last 5 matches, the Neapolitans collected 4 wins and 1 defeat (remedied against Lazio in a game that was more of a draw). During these matches, the Azzurri scored 11 goals and conceded just 1, demonstrating excellent defensive skills, a bit hidden in the past.

Napoli will not be able to count on Raspadori, Osimhen, Demme and Bereszynski. The most significant absence, clearly, will be that of the Nigerian, a true goal machine.

State of form of Milan

Milan occupies the fourth position in Serie A with 48 points, the same as Atalanta, fifth in the standings, and one more than Roma, sixth in the standings.

Over the last 5 matches, Milan managed 1 win, 2 losses and 2 draws. During these matches, the Milanese have scored 5 goals and conceded 6, numbers that show a bit of difficulty in defense.

Pioli will not be able to count on Ibrahimovic, Kalulu and Messias.

Napoli – Milan: which is the favorite team

If you look at the history of Milan's last matches, the Naples would seem extremely favored. Osimhen's absence, however, could discourage Spalletti's men, who will have to be good at avoiding all this, also because the entire Napoli squad is of a high level and does not revolve entirely around Osimhen.

Milan could try a backlash in search of a victory that will allow them not to leave the Champions area. Pioli's team, therefore, should not be underestimated.

In the last 5 meetings between the two teams, there are 3 victories for Napoli and 2 for Milan.
