In the last stage of Serie A on Saturday night at 21.45 on San Paolo, Napoli and Lazio Roma will face Roma.
If for the hosts it is a simple match, not counting the final result in the configuration of the ranking, the guests instead with a victory can climb to the second place of the Italian championship.
Napoli
It occupies the 7th place in Serie A with 59 points, a position it cannot lose at the end of this round, but at the same time it does not have the possibility to climb in the ranking, Milan having an advance of 4 points in front of it.
It comes after a failure suffered on Giuseppe Meazza, where Inter prevailed in front of him with the score of 2-0, it was the second defeat in the last 3 stages of the championship.
The awarding of the trophy in the Italian Cup and implicitly the direct qualification in the Europa League brought a relaxation among the players, who were somewhat deprived of a concrete goal.
Only a few of 6 defeats he ticked in this championship on his own field, quite a lot considering his pretensions.
Lazio
He has an unexpected chance at the end of the championship to finish at least on the 3rd place of the current season, but for that he has to win this last match, with a victory corroborated by a draw between Atalanta and Inter, he can rank second.
Simone Inzaghi seems to have managed to get his team back on track, after Lazio had a black series of 5 games without a win, 4 defeats and a failure, results that can be said to have cost her the title in Serie A.
Now she has 3 consecutive victories , but the opponents can be said to have been accessible: Cagliari, Verona and Brescia.

Football Prediction of the Day Napoli vs Lazio
I will bet on motivation in this duel, if Napoli can only play for its pride, instead Lazio would successfully finish second in Serie A, which is a huge stake.
The guests seem to have successfully overcome the bad period and come with a good morale on San Paolo, they have won the previous 3 matches in the championship by scoring 9 goals and receiving only two.
Napoli, as I said before, does not excel on its own field where it has 6 defeats and 23 goals conceded, on the other hand the team prepared by Simone Inzaghi scored 32 goals away.
