Napoli hosts Roma in one of the most exciting clashes of the 27th round of the Serie A. Both teams are competitors for the second place in the standings, with Napoli now 6 points behind their opponent and no doubt the team will be highly motivated to shorten this gap. Roma, however, have even a game in hand and therefore, the second place seems too far away for Napoli.
Roma`s ambitions for the title are far from over, as many experts say. Indeed the gap between Juventus and Roma is too large, but given that Roma played a game less, and the fact that Juve enter into heavy series of matches, sustaines the dreams of the Roman wolves for the title. However, a loss in today's visit is unacceptable to the Romans, if they want to keep alive even their small chances for the first place. Roma perform greatly the entire season and proved that they could handle any opponent.
The team of Rafael Benitez conceded two consecutive missteps in the league, as they drew their last two games. Fiorentina are just behind Napoli, and the Blues cannot afford another poor result. Napoli are very strong at home, as they lost just once in front of own audience for the entire season and score an average of 2.24 goals at home.
