Since last winning the Serie A in the 1989/90 season, with Diego Maradona famously spearheading their team to their second Scudetto in four seasons, Napoli have come close many times to winning their third league title, finishing second five times, but this season with a new-look squad, they seem to be best positioned to finally win the Serie A again.
Whilst not even being at the halfway point of the season, Napoli have easily been the best team in the Serie A this season, and the table showcases that as they top the table currently, with a five-point lead over reigning champions AC Milan, despite losing their first league game of the season in the season’s resumption game away to Inter Milan.
Napoli have been one of the most exciting and best-performing teams in Europe this season, thanks to Luciano Spalletti's coaching.
