Juventus FC

vs

Napoli

Preview

Juventus

• Juventus are unbeaten at home in Serie A in 2025-26, winning six and drawing four of their ten matches on home field while conceding just eight goals.
• With Luciano Spalletti now in charge at Juventus, the Old Lady have played more patient, possession-based soccer than they did under Massimiliano Allegri, while their defensive solidity has improved dramatically.
• The ex-Napoli coach is getting the most out of the squad he has at his disposal by deploying a 3-4-2-1 system that sees them build patiently from the back, rotate positions and press collectively, even if they are not in possession.
• Kenan Yildiz, who has seven Serie A goals in 20 appearances, remains their most dangerous outlet up front.

Napoli

• Napoli have won six of their 11 away Serie A matches this season.
• Antonio Conte’s Napoli have been a much more disciplined, intense pressing side since the ex-Chelsea coach took over.
• Napoli press very high, win the ball back and then play vertically, rather than sitting in and waiting to break forward.
• There are still moments when Conte gets them too far forward and a transition can catch them out.
• Scott McTominay is in particularly red-hot form right now, having scored three of the Partenopei’s last seven Serie A goals from a box-to-box role.

Key Players

• Kenan Yildiz - seven Serie A goals in 20 appearances.
• Rasmus Højlund - six Serie A goals in 17 league appearances and a big target up front for Napoli.
• Scott McTominay - recently scored three of Napoli’s last seven league goals from a box-to-box role.
