Italian author Maurizio De Giovanni believes that Napoli can win Serie A this season given that Inter are currently struggling in the league.

Speaking to today’s print edition of Rome-based newspaper Il Messaggero, the author gave the view that the Nerazzurri’s struggles could allow the Partenopei to capitalize in the Scudetto race.

All three of Inter, AC Milan, and Napoli currently find themselves locked in a close fight for the Serie A title, with Inter having effectively surrendered their advantage after surging to the top in November and December.

Now, all three teams have a decent chance to win the title, with the Partenopei having the potential to capitalize on draws by both the Nerazzurri and the Rossoneri on Friday against Udinese and Genoa respectively.

De Giovanni has faith that Napoli will be able to get over the line given the difficulties experienced by their main rivals.

Asked about Napoli’s Scudetto chances, he stated that “As a fan, I believe that they can do it. This season there isn’t a clear favourite, Inter are struggling and so are Milan.”
