After a surprise victory last weekend, Parma will be looking to pull off another upset on Saturday when they face Napoli at the Stadio Maradona. Parma have been impressive since their return to Serie A, remaining unbeaten so far, while Napoli, after an opening-day defeat, regained some confidence with a win last week.
Napoli's 3-0 victory over Bologna last time out was a much-needed result following a dismal start to the season, where they had been winless in eight league matches, dating back to last season. The arrival of Antonio Conte as manager has brought hope to a club that endured a chaotic year, finishing a disappointing 10th in the league, far behind champions Inter Milan. With goals from Giovanni Di Lorenzo and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Napoli will be aiming to secure back-to-back Serie A victories for the first time since March as Conte continues to shape his new-look squad.
On the other side, Parma have had a promising start to their campaign. After winning Serie B last season, they began their Serie A journey with a draw against Fiorentina, followed by a significant victory over AC Milan, where Dennis Man and new signings Pontus Almqvist and Matteo Cancellieri made the difference. Parma have historically performed well against Napoli, winning four of their last nine encounters at the Stadio Maradona, and they will be confident of extending their unbeaten run to three matches.
In terms of team news, Napoli's Victor Osimhen may still be on his way out, and with Romelu Lukaku unlikely to start, Giacomo Raspadori is expected to lead the attack, supported by Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. Antonio Conte has a full squad to choose from and may stick with the same lineup that defeated Bologna. Parma, meanwhile, will miss Hernani and Gabriel Charpentier due to injuries, and Nahuel Estevez is doubtful with a thigh problem. Ange-Yoan Bonny is likely to lead the line for Parma, with Dennis Man looking to continue his goal-scoring form.
Napoli are expected to take the full prize here.
在上周末的一场意外胜利之后,帕尔马将在周六的马拉多纳球场面对那不勒斯,希望能再次上演惊人之举。帕尔马自从重返意甲以来表现令人印象深刻,至今保持不败,而那不勒斯在揭幕战失利后,上周以一场胜利重拾信心。
上次那不勒斯3-0战胜博洛尼亚的比赛是一个非常需要的结果,因为他们本赛季开局惨淡,自上个赛季以来,他们已经有8场联赛没有获胜。安东尼奥·孔蒂(Antonio Conte)的上任给这家经历了混乱一年的俱乐部带来了希望,该俱乐部在联赛中令人失望地排名第十,远远落后于冠军国际米兰(international Milan)。随着迪洛伦佐和克瓦拉茨基利亚的进球,那不勒斯将在三月份以来的第一次意甲联赛中取得背靠背的胜利,孔蒂将继续塑造他的新阵容。
另一方面,帕尔马有一个很好的开始。在上赛季赢得乙级联赛冠军后,他们以战平佛罗伦萨开始了他们的意甲之旅,随后又取得了对AC米兰的重大胜利,其中丹尼斯·曼和新签入的本图斯·阿尔姆奎斯特和马泰奥·坎塞利里发挥了作用。帕尔马历史上在对阵那不勒斯的比赛中表现出色,在马拉多纳球场赢得了近9场比赛中的4场,他们有信心将不败纪录延长到3场。
球队方面的消息是,那不勒斯的奥西姆亨可能仍然会离开,而卢卡库不太可能首发,拉斯多里有望在克瓦拉茨基利亚的支持下领导进攻。孔蒂有一个完整的阵容可以选择,他可能会坚持使用击败博洛尼亚的同一阵容。与此同时,帕尔马也将因伤缺阵埃尔纳尼和查彭蒂耶,埃斯特维斯的大腿伤势也不确定。安格-约安-邦尼很可能在帕尔马领衔锋线,丹尼斯-曼希望继续他的进球状态。
那不勒斯有望在这里获得全部奖项。
