Following their stunning 3-2 win over Atalanta, Napoli have no time to rest on their laurels as they face a visit from record Italian champions Juventus on Saturday. These two Italian giants have dominated Serie A for the past couple of decades, and whenever they meet, it's always a must-watch clash. The big question now is: who will come out on top this time?

Napoli have been the surprise package of the season. No one expected them to be sitting pretty at the top of the Serie A table right now, but they’ve earned their place. Antonio Conte has worked wonders in Naples, but now he faces the ultimate test—his former club, Juventus. Beating them would be a huge statement for Napoli’s title ambitions. With six straight Serie A wins under their belt, the confidence is high, and playing at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium only adds to the belief that they can extend that winning streak.

Having said that, Juventus are a tough nut to crack. In fact, After 21 games, they’re the only team in Serie A still unbeaten, having won eight and drawn 13. That means a win for Napoli is far from a given this Saturday. In fact, the Bianconeri could be their toughest challenge yet. Napoli will need to approach this game with caution, knowing that Juventus is a serious threat. But Juventus’ string of draws has hurt their league position, and they now find themselves outside the top four, two points behind Lazio in fourth. For the Old Lady, securing all three points is just as crucial as it is for Napoli, as they look to get back into the Champions League places.
