Naples and Udinese will face off on the Dacia Arena at 20:45 on Thursday 4 May.
If Lazio were to win, the one against Udinese could be the match for the third Neapolitan championship.
Below is our pre-match analysis and the state of the injured players at Udinese – Napoli.
State of form of Napoli
Napoli occupies the first place in Serie A with 79 points. By winning another 2 points, the victory of the Scudetto will be mathematical.
Over the last 5 matches, Napoli collected 1 win, 3 draws and 1 defeat, scoring 3 goals and conceding as many. It is certainly not the best Napoli of the season, but a physical decline was to be expected.
Spalletti won't be able to count on Mario Rui and politan, both injured.
State of form of Udinese
Udinese occupies the 13th position in Serie A with 42 points, far from the relegation zone which is currently fixed at 27 points.
in last 5 games, Udinese collected 1 win, 1 draw and 3 defeats, scoring 5 goals and conceding 9.
Sottil will not have Deulofeu, Ebosse and Success at his disposal.
What to expect and the premises of Udinese – Naples
The last 5 meetings between Napoli and Udinese have seen only victories of the Neapolitans. As the match against Salernitana taught us, however, the history of clashes between two teams is not enough to predict how the next match between the two teams will end.
Udinese is a team not to be underestimated and able to sting at the first moment of distraction.
Napoli will have to be good at bringing home the two key points for the Scudetto, unless Lazio can get the win against Sassuolo. In this case, Napoli he would already be champion of Italy when he sets foot in the Dacia Arena.
