Leaders Inter Milan face a game of maximum pressure with Saturday’s visit to Napoli, just one point behind, in the star match of matchday 25 of Italian Serie A.
Last Saturday’s 2-1 defeat in the derby against AC Milan (3rd, also one point after that win) has added a great deal of emotion to the fight for the ‘Scudetto’.
It is true that Inter has that one point of advantage over Napoli and Milan, and that they also have played one game less than their two pursuers, but everything seems very open and the visit to the Diego Maradona stadium generates great expectation.
The other great pulse of the 25th Italian matchday will measure Atalanta against Juventus on Sunday, in a direct duel for fourth place, the last one that in ‘Calcio’ qualifies for the next Champions League.
Juventus is the one who now occupies that fourth place, with a two-point advantage over Atalanta (5th), who if they win on Sunday would return to the ‘Champions zone’.
The Colombian attacker Duván Zapata (Atalanta), seriously injured in his left thigh and who could be absent until the end of April, will not be in the game and complicates the offensive task for the team from Bergamo, already deprived of Josip Ilicic for several weeks.
The also Colombian Luis Muriel will therefore have an extra responsibility to give a new impetus to ‘la Dea’, who in the last six games barely achieved a victory and who was eliminated on Thursday by Fiorentina in the quarterfinals of the Copa del Rey. Italy.
At Juventus, newcomer Dusan Vlahovic will be the reference above.
At the bottom of the table, the Salernitana, bottom nine points behind the first team outside the relegation places, plays one of its last tricks for salvation, in the field of the penultimate, Genoa (19th).
