A difference of 3 points, this means a difference of 1 win in a match. It means that even though Inter Milan is already in 1st place in Serie A standing, it does not mean that their position is safe. In fact, they must be more vigilant because Napoli continues to monitor every time to wait for an opportunity that exists, such as they can win and Inter is in a losing condition.
And moreover, Inter Milan is currently still in the UEFA Champions League match too, so there are some who still have or maintain other focuses, not only Serie A.
The difference lies there. Inter Milan still have to share their focus with UCL. Meanwhile, Napoli can just focus on Serie A. But in the coming week, Inter Milan will have an opponent who is not so strong. So Inter Milan should probably still be able to get full points again and remain safe in first place. Meanwhile, Napoli has quite a tough opponent, namely AC Milan. And Napoli could lose full points again in this match.
Conte should have brought Napoli to optimize this chance. Although they are currently still lacking in attack and defense since one of their key players left. However, as an experienced coach, Conte should have been able to create tactics that could optimize the club with the current conditions. And the 3-point difference is still very possible to take over, especially if Inter Milan loses 1x and at that time Napoli should not lose the opportunity. Unfortunately, sometimes when Napoli has a chance, they also slip up and suffer an unexpected defeat. This is what sometimes happens and makes Napoli fail to maintain or take over the ranking.
In the next few days, Napoli will play against AC Milan.
This might be a tough challenge for Napoli. Although Milan is also in bad shape, it doesn't mean they are a very bad team. They still have the strength to fight Napoli, so Conte must be careful in this t
