Juventus vs Napoli

Juventus vs Napoli live streaming

Juventus' narrow 2-1 win over Monza last weekend kept them just a point behind the top of Serie A (SA). Their winning streak now stands at nine games (W7, D2). However, they might take a temporary lead on Friday if they defeat incumbent champions Napoli at home. With only nine goals allowed in their 14 league games this season, their current championship quest is based on a strong defensive base

Juve's undefeated home league record (W5, D2) has been largely attributed to that strong defense, but that might be seriously threatened by Napoli, who Juve has lost to at home in their past two home meetings (D1, L1). Juventus hadn't lost three straight home league meetings since a period between 1995 and 1998, but that was the first time they had lost two straight in almost a decade!

Napoli, who started this difficult phase by defeating Atalanta, is playing its fourth game against top opponents. Last weekend, they lost 3-0 to league leaders Inter Milan and then to Real Madrid. This latter incident created quite a sensation After his team was controversially refused a penalty, the CEO of Napoli filed an official protest regarding the quality of officiating in Serie A. This latter incident created quite a sensation.

A string of eight league games with varying outcomes in succession (W4, D1, L3) has left Napoli 11 points behind the top, making it appear doubtful that they would successfully retain their Serie A championship. Though they only have one of the two undefeated road records in Serie A (W5, D2), their away performance has been their main asset and has contributed more than two-thirds of their points this season.
