Preview

Match preview

Napoli welcome AS Roma to the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona in round 8 of Serie A, featuring two sides enjoying contrasting starts to their domestic campaigns. Roma arrive in third place on 17 points, remaining unbeaten across their opening seven league fixtures with five victories and two draws. Their defensive discipline has been an early highlight, conceding just three league goals all season.

Napoli sit ninth with 10 points from seven games, having registered three wins, one draw, and three defeats. Antonio Conte's side bounced back with a 4-3 European victory over Bodo/Glimt following a 1-0 league loss away to Venezia, but they continue to manage the absence of key defender A. Buongiorno due to injury.

Historically, this fixture has produced balanced and closely fought contests, with five draws across the last ten meetings and only one victory for Roma in that span. However, Roma's current defensive organization and attacking output led by D. Malen, who has scored six goals, provides them with significant momentum heading into Naples.
