The highly anticipated Sunday evening fixture between Milan and Napoli marks the fifth round of the championship. This exciting Serie A clash is scheduled for 8:45 PM local time at the legendary San Siro (Meazza) stadium in Milan. Daniele Chiffi from the Padua section will officiate the match, assisted by Meli and Alassio. Marinelli will serve as the fourth official, with Marini as VAR and Doveri as assistant VAR, ensuring a fair and meticulously reviewed game.
Milan`s Current Form
Milan is currently enjoying an excellent period, a sentiment well-supported by their impressive statistics. They boast four consecutive wins across all competitions, including the Coppa Italia, achieving four clean sheets and scoring nine goals. The team`s regenerated spirit is palpable on the field, especially after an initial season fraught with uncertainties. The Rossoneri are not only playing well but also appear to be genuinely enjoying their football. Coach Allegri welcomes back Leao, who is expected to start from the bench, adding significant firepower. Next Sunday presents another significant challenge as Milan faces Juventus in Turin, a true test of their newfound momentum.
Napoli`s Current Form
Napoli arrives at the Meazza as league leaders, proudly boasting a perfect record. While confidence within the squad is undoubtedly high, their recent match against Pisa raised some concerns, with Napoli taking unnecessary risks towards the end of the game, almost jeopardizing their lead. Coach Conte is grappling with numerous defensive issues for this critical encounter, as key players Buongiorno, Rrahmani, Spinazzola, and Olivera are all unavailable due to injuries, forcing tactical adjustments in the backline.
