Inter Milan vs Napoli Preview

  • Tournament: Serie A
  • Date: Sunday, November 10, 2024
  • Time: 7:45 pm GMT
  • Venue: San Siro

Inter Milan will host Napoli at San Siro in a top-of-the-table clash in Serie A on Sunday, November 10.

Both sides have had a brilliant start to the season and are battling it out for the Scudetto. Inter won the title last season while Napoli finished 10th. However, the latter have turned their form around under new manager Antonio Conte and are looking to get their hands on the title.

Napoli currently sits atop the Serie A table with eight wins, one draw, and two defeats in 11 games. Meanwhile, Inter are one point behind them with seven wins, three draws, and one defeat.

Napoli has the advantage of playing one game per week as they didn’t qualify for any European competition this season. Hence, they have more time to rest than Inter, who hosted Arsenal in the UEFA Champions League midweek. Manager Simone Inzaghi decided to rest some players and they still won 1-0.

Hence, with fresher squads and the importance of the clash, it’s set to be a big clash at San Siro on Sunday.

Key Players to watch in Inter Milan vs Napoli

Marcus Thuram

Marcus Thuram has been Inter Milan’s main man this season. While he was practically a second fiddle to Lautaro Martinez, he has been the leader in attack this season. He is the Nerazzurri’s top scorer with eight goals and five assists in 14 games across competitions this season.

Since arriving from Borussia Monchengladbach last summer, Thuram has scored 23 goals and provided 19 assists in 59 games for Inter. He will hope to add to his tally against Napoli and announce himself on the big stage.

Romelu Lukaku

After his appointment as Napoli’s manager in the summer, Antonio Conte was tipped to sign Romelu Lukaku from Chelsea and the club eventually did. He has been a brilliant addition to the club after Victor Osimhen’s departure in the summer.

Lukaku has scored four goals and provided five assists in 10 games across competitions for Napoli. He also scored in their 2-0 win over AC Milan last weekend but it was his only goal in his last four games. Hence, the Belgian would be keen to get back to scoring more consistently.

Inter Milan vs Napoli Prediction

Both sides have been in terrific form this season. While Inter had an underwhelming start to the campaign, they have picked up brilliantly and are showing their prowess across competitions.

The Nerazzurri beat Arsenal 1-0 in the Champions League despite resting a few of their key players. They sit fifth in the table with three wins and one draw. In Serie A, they are unbeaten in their last six games, with five wins and one draw. They beat Venezia 1-0 at home in their last game.

Napoli, meanwhile, started the season with a defeat but were unbeaten since then. However, they lost 3-0 at home against Atalanta in their last game in Serie A in what was a disappointing performance.

Facing Inter at San Siro is never easy and less so when they are in spectacular form. While Napoli have been excellent this season, the Nerazzurri are expected to take all three points in the crucial clash.

Predicted Score: 3-1
