Expectations At All-Time High: Napoli & Inter Milan Set To Square Off At Sold-Out Diego Maradona Stadium | OneFootball

The countdown for a heavily anticipated Serie A title six-pointer between Napoli and Inter Milan has begun.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the two fierce rivals will lock horns at a ‘sold-out’ Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.

Both teams failed to record victories last weekend.

While Juventus squeezed past Inter in Turin, Napoli dropped a slender lead in a 2-2 draw at Lazio.

As a result, Antonio Conte has steered his Partenopei side two points away from the Nerazzurri.

However, the gap remains bridgeable as the two teams prepare for a crucial showdown in Naples.

Napoli will host Inter on the south coast on March 2.

With both sides expected to beat Como and Genoa, respectively, in the next round, the distance should remain the same ahead of the kick-off.

Meanwhile, Simone Inzaghi’s charges will seek redemption after a dismal 1-1 draw in November’s reverse fixture.
