Get ready for a thrilling Serie A showdown as Napoli takes on Como! This highly anticipated match is set to take place on Saturday, November 1st, at the iconic Stadio Diego Armando Maradona in Naples, Italy. Kick-off is scheduled for 18:00 SAST.
Napoli's Dominance
Napoli has been in scintillating form, currently sitting at the top of the Serie A table with 21 points. Their attack is the second-most potent in the league, just behind Inter, and they'll be looking to maintain their lead. Key players like Rasmus Hojlund, who has already bagged two goals this season, will be crucial in breaking down Como's defence.
The return of Romelu Lukaku from injury is a massive boost for Napoli. While he might not feature in this particular match, his presence on the bench will undoubtedly add to the team's confidence. However, they will have to cope with the absence of Kevin De Bruyne, who is sidelined with an injury.
Como's Resilient Defence
Como, managed by Cesc Fabregas, has proven to be a tough nut to crack. They boast the second-best defence in the league, having conceded only six goals. Their solid defensive structure, coupled with their ability to grind out results, makes them a formidable opponent for Napoli.
Nico Paz will be a key player for Como. The young Argentinian has been in excellent form, scoring four goals and providing four assists in nine league games. He will be a constant threat to Napoli's backline.
