On Wednesday night, Napoli vs Juventus are fighting for the first trophy of this season. The match will take place at the Olimpico stadium and will be refereed by the brigade led by D. Doveri.
Naples – He can save his season
Last year, with Carlo Ancelotii on the bench, Napoli fought Juventus for the title. The current season, on the other hand, did not start well at all, and in December the Italian was fired from the technical bench. In his place was brought Gennaro Gattuso, who at AC Milan did not have very good results. His arrival did not bring the desired changes and for this reason, Napoli is only on the sixth place in the championship, with 39 points, and the chances to get a place in the Champions League are lower. The fourth place is at nine points and there are 12 more games to play. The A series has not returned yet, but the Federation has decided to find out the winner of the cup as soon as possible. A few days ago, Napoli played the return match with Inter. After winning 1-0 away, on their own field a draw was enough, score 1-1. Also, she is still present in the Champions League, where she is qualified in the eighth finals, and now she is waiting for the return with Barcelona, after she drew at home, score 1-1.
- Probable team (4-3-3): Ospina – Hysaj, Koulibaly, Maksimovic, Lorenzo – Zielinski, Demme, Elmas – Insigne, Mertens, Politano
Juventus – In the second final this season
After his experience in the Premier League, Maurizio Sarri returned to Serie A with great thoughts, but also with the desire to win trophies. So far, things are going well, although at the end of last year he lost the Super Cup, in front of Lazio. In the Champions League she qualified for the round of 16, but in the first match she lost away to Lyon, score 1-0, and now she has to return the fate of the qualification. He is in first place in the championship, but he has only one point ahead of Lazio, which is far behind. After more than three months of absence, four days ago he played in the semifinals of the cup with AC Milan. The match ended in a draw, score 0-0, and Cristiano missed a penalty in the 16th minute, and Ante Rebic was eliminated directly. Under these conditions, he dominated the game, but he failed to score. Now he plays away and will not have an easy mission at all.
- Probable team (4-3-3): Buffon – Sandro, Ligt, Bonucci, Danilo – Matuidi, Bentancur, Pjanic – Ronaldo, Dybala, Costa

Napoli vs Juventus Picks
This season, the two teams met twice, and each managed to impose itself on its own field. They were spectacular matches, with many goals, but now I expect a balanced match, which I don’t think will be decided in the 90 minutes. Napoli showed a good game a few days ago and I don’t think they will lose in regular time.
