Inter Vs Napoli: Partenopei’s Mission to Widen the Gap with the Nerazzurri

DBasia.news – Napoli will face a difficult match when they travel to Inter Milan’s headquarters in the 2021-2022 Serie A continuation, this weekend. However, the leader of the standings still carries a high target.

Napoli has unexpectedly become a serious challenger to the Scudetto this season. Of the 12 matches that have been played, Il Partenopei are unbeaten with a record of ten wins and two draws.

Only AC Milan can match Napoli’s points tally. While Inter, who are the defending champions, are seven points behind.

Napoli winger Matteo Politano is well aware of the meaning of the match against Inter. This is a test of his team’s readiness to compete for the championship ladder.

“This will be an important match that will open the cycle of fighting until the end of December. Our target is always to win,” Politano told Radio Kiss Kiss.

“We have to do well this month, thinking to give our best in every game.”

The match against Inter can indeed be the key for Napoli to win the title. The victory over the Nerazzurri certainly strengthened the confidence of Luciano Spalletti’s team.

Conversely, defeat in this match can also affect the mental state of the Napoli players. It is not impossible that their performance will decline after achieving bad results on the trip at the Giuseppe Meazza.

Politano himself is a former Inter player. He certainly understands the atmosphere of Giuseppe Meazza when holding a big match.

Inter supporters are believed to be filling the stadium in order to give full support to their idol team. Their presence can certainly affect the course of the game.

“(The atmosphere) San Siro is always interesting. We also face a great team, but we know we have the advantage in the table,” he added.

“Our aim is to keep the distance from the Nerazzurri.”
