Napoli v Fiorentina
The newly-crowned Serie A champions are now set to begin their victory parade around Italy, with the first stop being their own Stadio Diego Armando Maradona where they take on Vincenzo Italiano’s Fiorentina.
The focus may be more on the stands rather than the pitch during the opening exchanges as 54,000 sleep-deprived and perpetually drunk Neapolitans pile into the stadium to honour their champions, the first to deliver such joy in 33 years.
We have to entertain the possibility that the days-long party that the players are now a part of in Naples will have a toll on their performance, but they are also certainly good enough to just come out and produce another fine display knowing that they no longer have the pressure of actually delivering the title.
It is more fun to think that they will do the latter, but Fiorentina will know that they potentially have a great opportunity to come to the champions and get three points if they can catch Napoli lacking from the start.
Italiano’s team are predominantly playing to ensure that they can finish in a respectable eighth place, with any higher looking impossible now. Their form has started to stutter, but their 3-3 draw with Salernitana shows that they are prone to exciting, goal-laden games and this could be quite a mad match given the circumstances.
