Partenopei Look to Tame the Salentini

Napoli welcome Lecce to the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona in what promises to be an intriguing Serie A clash. The reigning champions will be looking to maintain their title defense against a Lecce side aiming to secure their top-flight status.

Napoli, under the guidance of their new manager, have continued to play the attractive, attacking football that won them the Scudetto.

However, Lecce have shown they can be resilient opponents, especially away from home.

The match could hinge on Napoli’s ability to break down Lecce’s defensive organization. Will the Partenopei’s attacking flair prove too much, or can the Salentini produce a tactical masterclass to frustrate the champions?
