Napoli definitely aimed to defend the title in the current season they managed to keep key players and strengthen the team, but Luciano Spalletti left. Under the guidance of Rudy Garcia, Napoli made many mistakes at the start of the season, and despite being far from a global failure, the management decided to change the coach at the end of November, Walter Mazzarri returned to Naples. In the first match under his guidance after returning, Napoli beat “Atalanta” 2:1 away in a very challenging match. The victory helped Napoli rise to the fourth place in the table, but they are nine points behind the leader “Inter”. In the Champions League this week, Napoli lost 2:4 to “Real Madrid,” but still remained in second place and almost secured a place in the playoffs.
Before the start of the season, “Inter” was considered the main contender for the Scudetto, despite several losses, including Marcelo Brozovic, Milan Skriniar, Romelu Lukaku, and Andre Onana. The players who replaced them quickly integrated into the team, and Inter immediately gained momentum, although a few times, still during the first round, they had serious stumbles. However, the competitors also made mistakes, and “Inter” was at the top of the table before the start of the 14th round, leading “Juventus” by two points. The handicap could have been even more significant, but in the head-to-head match with “La Vecchia Signora” this week, Simone Inzaghi’s team played a 1:1 draw in Turin. The match with “Benfica” (3:3) in the Champions League also ended in a draw this week, but in this match, Inter made a comeback, equalizing three goals against the opponent.
