The upcoming match between AC Milan and Napoli promises to be an intense encounter, with both teams vying for supremacy in Serie A. Historically, these clubs have maintained a fierce rivalry, often leading to unpredictable outcomes . The current form of each team will play a pivotal role in determining the match's outcome, as both sides are packed with talented players capable of turning the tide in crucial moments.
Everyone expected a straightforward away win. Instead, Napoli went down to a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Verona. Conte said afterwards that his team “melted like snow in the sun”. It was an inauspicious beginning.
Thankfully for Conte, it was also an aberration. Napoli have not lost since that heavy loss on the opening weekend of 2024/25.
In fact, Conte’s charges have collected 22 points from the last 24 available to move into pole position in the Serie A standings.
The seven-time European champions led when Christian Pulisic scored direct from a corner, before their visitors had a player sent off and later equalised against the odds; two clinical strikes from Tijjani Reijnders then turned the game in Milan's favour.
That brought some redemption for Reijnders, who had seen red in the Rossoneri's most recent league outing, when they were forced to defend Samu Chukwueze's early goal while playing for over an hour with 10 men.
Having bravely seen off Udinese, Paulo Fonseca's side kept themselves within range of the Serie A pace-setters, led by this Tuesday's opponents.
AC Milan possible starting lineup: Maignan; Emerson, Tomori, Pavlovic, Terracciano; Fofana, Loftus-Cheek; Chukwueze, Pulisic, Okafor; Morata
Napoli possible starting lineup: Meret; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Buongiorno, Spinazzola; Anguissa, Lobotka; Politano, McTominay, Kvaratskhelia; Lukaku
In terms of lineups, both coaches are likely to field their strongest squads. AC Milan's recent performances suggest a solid defensive strategy combined with quick counter-attacks . Conversely, Napoli has demonstrated creativity and flair in their attacking plays. This tactical juxtaposition will make for an intriguing matchup on the pitch.
