Yesterday, Napoli won their game in the semi-final 3-0 against Florenze. The first team in the final, and if Inter Milan win today (which I think they will) then it will be a nice final. Inter Milan against SSC Napoli, last seasons cup winners against last seasons Serie A champions. This year it could go the other way, but I think Inter Milan will win Serie A and the Supercoppa. Lazio Rom have had a good run, winning all of their last 5 games. The last game between the two teams was in December 2023 and Inter Milan won that 2-0. So, like you, I would bet on Inter today.

It was a test of strength and pride for Napoli, and what a test!! The 3-0 result makes it clear that the team is there, they just need to recover their motivation and above all their morale which is at zero. In my opinion they can do it, but this season is now over.. but is good start for next season!

Beating Fiorentina and advancing to the final of the Italian Super Cup was the expected result, a sign of revival to restart what they lost before. The Italian Super Cup is Napoli only hope this season, because in my opinion that is the trophy that is closest and most likely for them to achieve. However, another fact is who their opponents will be in the final. If Inter Milan manages to beat Lazio then Napoli chances of winning the trophy are probably very low. Because we know that Inter are very strong this season, it will be difficult for Napoli to beat them, but we'll see who knows if Lazio will have greater luck.

Overall, in my opinion, the 3-0 victory over Fiorentina cannot be used as a complete reference, to say that Mazzarri squad has marked a turning point in performance. In the future, Napoli will face Lazio again in Serie A, a match that is relevant to see Napoli strength, whether they have really recovered and are fighting to finish in their rightful place. Many doubt Napoli at the moment, especially after two changes of coach, and key player Osimhem is not performing at his best in this season.
